- 2. In plants this organelle is very large and used to store water, sap and waste products.
- 4. An organism that consists of a single cell.
- 5. Organelles that carry out cellular respiration to produce energy for the cell.
- 8. A single celled organism such as Euglena.
- 9. A specialised cell that is biconcave in shape in order to carry more oxygen.
- 10. The 'skin' of the cell; it controls what substances can enter and exit the cell.
- 13. The jelly-like fluid inside the cell in which chemical reactions take place.
- 16. A specialised cell that has many mitochondria so that energy is continually available to the cell.
- 18. A specialised cell that has a tail so it can swim towards an egg cell.
