Across
- 3. chemical reactions & protein transport occur in this; covered in ribosomes
- 4. the control center of the cell which contains DNA in the form of chromatin
- 6. organelles that capture light energy & create glucose in plant cells
- 9. molecules move to equalize concentration
- 11. cell drinking
- 13. cells that have membrane-bound organelles
- 14. a large structure found within the nucleus which creates ribosomes
- 15. a natural, steady state, or a balance within a cell, which allows for maximum function
- 16. thin, hollow cylinders made of protein which provide support in cell
- 18. when a membrane allows only certain molecules or ions to cross
- 19. the selectively permeable & flexible boundary around a cell
- 20. packages the proteins into vesicles
- 21. energy (ATP) required
- 22. the basic unit of structure & function of all living things
- 24. membrane-bound storage bubbles; store water, pigments, & toxins in plant cells & carbohydrate & lipids in animal cells
- 26. cell eating
- 27. the movement of large materials into cells; plasma membrane surrounds material, edges of membrane meet, & membranes form to fuse vesicle
- 28. organelles that provide energy for all of the cells' functions
- 30. solutes in cell more than outside; outside solvent flows into cell
- 33. produces & stores lipids & detoxifies; lacks ribosomes
- 34. small, solid protein fibers that provide support in a cell & anchor organelles
- 35. solutes greater outside of cell; fluid flows out of cell
- 36. small, specialized structures found within cells; each has its own function
Down
- 1. longer projection that whips to help a cell move
- 2. sire where a cell creates proteins according to the directions of the DNA
- 5. contain digestive enzymes responsible for digesting worn-out organelles
- 7. no energy required
- 8. a membrane that separates the nucleus & the cytoplasm inside a cell
- 10. channels help molecule or ions enter or leave cell; aquaporins facilitate movement of water
- 12. special form of diffusion; fluid flows from lower solute concentration; involves movement of water
- 17. short, hair-like projections that help a cell move
- 23. clear, jelly-like or gelatinous fluid with within the cell which aids in protein transport
- 25. vesicle moves to cell surface, membrane of vesicle fuses, materials expelled
- 29. cells that lack membrane-bound organelles
- 31. solutes equal inside & outside of cell
- 32. a rigid structure found inside the plasma membrane of plant cells, which provides support & protection
