Cellular Structure and Function

2. Break down macromolecules, worn out organelles, and dying cells with digestive enzymes.
4. Controls cell functions and houses and protects DNA.
6. Rigid structure that surrounds cell membrane and provides shape to plant cells.
7. Small cell that has no nucleus, is less organized, and lacks most organelles.
8. Organelle only found in animal cell that organizes microtubules during cell division.
10. The cell's outer boundary. Allows materials to enter and leave the cell. (cell membrane).
11. Liquid portion of cytoplasm. Includes ribosomes, but not other organelles.
15. Network of protein filaments and tubes that provide structure, movement, shape, and play a role in cell division.
16. Double layer of lipids that make up the plasma (cell) membrane and organelle membranes.
18. States all living things are made up of cells, cells are the basic units of organisms, and cells come from existing cells.
19. Small, spherical organelles responsible for building a protein.
20. Short hairlike structures that extend from cell and aid in cell movement.
21. Sorts, modifies, and transports proteins and lipids to where they need to go.

1. Long whiplike structure that extends from cell and aid in cell movement.
3. Responsible for creating ATP from organic molecules to supply energy to the cell. (Mitochondrion is singular)
5. Use light energy to make carbohydrates from carbon dioxide and water in plant cells.
8. Region of the cell within membrane that contains fluid, cytoskeleton, and all organelles except nucleus.
9. Stores (mostly) water, enzymes, wastes, and other materials in plant cells.
12. System of membranes that helps in the transport of proteins and production of lipids.
13. Protein fiber in the cytoplasm that aids in cell movement and muscle contraction.
14. Larger cell that has a nucleus, a higher level of organization, and organelles.
17. Small sac that contains materials to be taken into the cell or transported within the cell.
