Across
- 3. cell with a nucleus
- 4. green pigment found in plant cells
- 6. The condensed chromosomes line up at the center of the cell
- 9. The chromosomes arrive at opposite poles of the cells; New nuclear envelopes form around the two sets of chromosomes
- 10. gel like substance that fills the cell
- 12. in plants; rigid and provides support and shape
- 13. The sister chromatids separate. The spindle fibers shorten, pulling the chromatids to opposite ends of the cell
- 14. contains information cells use for growth and development
- 15. storage for food water and waste in the cells; big in plant small in animal cells
- 17. cell without a nucleus
- 18. uses the sun's energy to make food through photosynthesis
- 20. the cytoplasm splits, creating two daughter cells.
- 22. series of flat membranes that package and send products out of the cell
- 24. contains digestive enzymes that help break down waste
- 26. help ribosomes make proteins; passageway that carries proteins
- 27. a group of like cells working together to perform a task
Down
- 1. The cell prepares for division by condensing its chromosomes
- 2. the basic unit of life
- 5. a group of like organs working together to perform a task
- 7. where food energy is converted into usable energy for the cell (ATP)
- 8. contains genetic information (DNA); is the control center of the cell
- 11. The cell grows, copies its DNA, and prepares for cell division
- 16. make and package proteins
- 18. flexible and encloses the cell, controls what enters the cell
- 19. the study of cells
- 21. part inside the cell
- 23. a group of like tissues working together to perform a task
- 25. any single living thing
