  1. 4. the central and most important part of an object, movement, or group, forming the basis for its activity and growth
  2. 7. is an organelle found in large numbers in most cells, in which the biochemical processes of respiration and energy production occur.
  3. 8. apparatus a complex of vesicles and folded membranes within the cytoplasm of most eukaryotic cells, involved in secretion and intracellular transport.
  4. 9. The smallest structural and functional unit of an organism.
  5. 11. the resting phase between successive mitotic divisions of a cell, or between the first and second divisions of meiosis
  6. 13. a type of cell division that results in two daughter cells each having the same number and kind of chromosomes as the parent nucleus, typical of ordinary tissue growth
  7. 14. cell A eukaryotic cell contains a true nucleus and certain organelles to perform specific functions.
  8. 15. a distinguishing quality or characteristic, typically one belonging to a person.

  1. 1. Reticulum a network of membranous tubules within the cytoplasm of a eukaryotic cell, continuous with the nuclear membrane. It usually has ribosomes attached and is involved in protein and lipid synthesis
  2. 2. unit of heredity which is transferred from a parent to offspring and is held to determine some characteristic of the offspring
  3. 3. an organelle in the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells containing degradative enzymes enclosed in a membrane.
  4. 5. a minute particle consisting of RNA and associated proteins found in large numbers in the cytoplasm of living cells. They bind messenger RNA and transfer RNA to synthesize polypeptides and proteins.
  5. 6. is something that makes your personality
  6. 9. the cytoplasmic division of a cell at the end of mitosis or meiosis, bringing about the separation into two daughter cells
  7. 10. a threadlike structure of nucleic acids and protein found in the nucleus of most living cells, carrying genetic information in the form of genes
  8. 12. cell A type of eukaryotic cell that lacks a cell wall has a genuine, membrane-bound nucleus along with other cellular organelles.
