Across
- 5. Moving things inside and outside of the cell membrane.
- 6. In plant cells only, they are organelles that produce food. Chlorophyll is a green pigment that makes plants look green and also uses energy from the sun to change water and carbon dioxide into glucose, a simple sugar.
- 9. The cell’s transport organelle, processing and moving materials throughout the cell.
- 14. Cells found in animals
- 15. Plants, algae, fungi and some bacteria have an extra computer layer that is very rigid and tough, that helps protect the cell and give it shape.
- 17. The basic structural and functional unit of all forms of life; they are able to replicate independently.
- 18. Organelle that contains digestive chemicals that break down food, cell waste, and foreign particles that enter the cell
- 19. The cell’s powerhouse, releasing energy in food by carrying out a reaction with oxygen.
- 20. The cell’s “control center”, housing the cell’s chromosomes.
- 21. Temporary storage bubbles for the cell, storing food, water, or waste.
- 23. transport requires energy to move a substance into and out of a cell.
- 25. A small structure found inside the nucleus that makes ribosomes and transports them to the cytoplasm.
- 26. Organisms that exist that are composed of a single cell
- 27. there is a layer on the outside of the cell that holds the cell together, and controls the flow of material in and out of the cell
- 28. Another chemical reaction where energy is released through the breakdown of food; occurs where oxygen is not present. One waste product is Lactic Acid (which causes muscles to cramp when it builds up).
Down
- 1. Cells found in plants
- 2. The parts of a cell. They process and release energy, destroy and digest materials, and replicate genetic information.
- 3. Much more complex types of cells (containing a membrane-bound nucleus, mitochondria, and organelles) found in protists, fungi, animals and plants.
- 4. The chemical reaction a plant carries out in order to produce energy from sunlight. Chlorophyll uses the sun’s energy to convert carbon dioxide and water into energy (glucose). Oxygen is released as a waste product.
- 7. Organism that is composed of many cells, and many different types of cells that perform different tasks throughout the organism.
- 8. Jelly-like substance in the cell containing all the organelles in the cell. It helps to maintain the structure of the cell.
- 10. The cell’s packaging, sorting, and distributing organelle. They sort proteins from the Endoplasmic Reticulum and then distribute them to where they need to go.
- 11. Glucose in food reacts with oxygen, producing carbon dioxide, water and energy in the mitochondria; waste products are carbon dioxide and water.
- 12. A protective double membrane surrounding the nucleus that controls the flow of materials in and out of the nucleus.
- 13. All organisms are made of cells (one or more);The cell is the basic building block of life (in structure and function);Every cell comes from another existing cell (cells divide to form new cells)
- 16. Very simple, single-celled bacteria that do not have a membrane-bound nucleus, mitochondria, or organelles.
- 22. The movement of things in and out of the cell without the use of energy.
- 24. Protein-making factories in a cell.
