Across
- 5. Network of proteins, such as microtubules and microfilaments, inside a eukaryotic cell that supports and shapes the cell
- 7. Interconnected network of thin, folded membranes that produce, process, and distribute proteins
- 10. Organelle that contains enzymes; digests old/worn out cell organelles
- 11. Organelles that link amino acids to form proteins
- 12. Cell that can be divided for long periods of time while remaining undifferentiated
- 13. Stack of flat, membrane-enclosed spaces containing enzymes that process , sort, and deliver proteins
- 15. Double-layer of phospholipids that form a boundary between the cell and the surrounding environment and controls the passage of materials into and out of a cell
- 17. Jelly-like substance inside cells that contains molecules and in some cell organelles
- 18. Inside the nucleus; makes ribosomes
- 20. Organelle that is used to store materials, such as water, food, or enzymes, that are needed by the cell.
Down
- 1. Small cylinder-shaped organelle made of protein tubes arranged in a circle; aids mitosis
- 2. Cell that has a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles
- 3. Small organelle that contains and transports materials within the cytoplasm
- 4. Organelle composed of numerous membranes that are used to convert solar energy into chemical energy; contains chlorophyll
- 6. Circular piece of genetic material found in bacteria that can replicate separately from DNA of the main chromosome
- 8. Cell that does not have a nucleus or other membrane-bound organelles
- 9. Bean-shaped organelle that supplies energy to the cell and has its own ribosomes and DNA; produces ATP
- 14. Long, continuous thread of DNA that consists of numerous genes and regulatory information
- 16. Organelle composed of a double membrane that acts as a storehouse for most of the cell’s DNA
- 19. Rigid structure that gives protection, support, and shape the cells in plants, algae, fungi, and bacteria
