Across
  1. 2. – The green part of plant cells where photosynthesis occurs, like in Christmas trees
  2. 4. – Simple organisms without a nucleus, like reindeer with no sleigh.
  3. 5. – A group of tissues working together, like a Christmas choir in harmony.
  4. 7. – Powerhouse of the cell, like the energy needed for Santa’s sleigh.
  5. 10. – Storage space in plant cells, like Santa's bag storing all the presents.
  6. 12. – A group of similar cells working together, much like elves in a team.
  7. 14. – Small structures within a cell that perform tasks, like elves in Santa’s workshop.
  8. 16. – The smallest unit of life, like the building blocks of Santa's workshop.
  9. 18. – Genetic material that carries instructions for growth, like a Christmas list with instructions for each gift.
  10. 20. – Biological catalyst speeding up reactions, like the helpers working to prepare for Christmas.
  11. 22. – Site of protein synthesis, like the kitchen where Christmas meals are prepared.
  12. 23. – A group of organs working together, just like Santa’s sleigh team.
  13. 24. – Enzyme breaking down proteins (e.g., turkey).
Down
  1. 1. – Enzyme breaking down fats (e.g., butter on Christmas bread).
  2. 2. – Jelly-like substance where cell processes occur, like the cozy warmth of the North Pole.
  3. 3. – Movement of water across a membrane, like snowflakes melting into the ground.
  4. 6. – Movement of particles from high to low concentration, like the smell of Christmas cookies spreading through a room.
  5. 8. – The control center of the cell, like Santa's workshop where all decisions are made.
  6. 9. – Transport of substances requiring energy, like reindeer needing carrots for fuel.
  7. 11. Wall – Strong outer layer of plant cells, like the walls of a gingerbread house.
  8. 13. Membrane – Outer layer controlling what enters and leaves the cell, like the walls of a snow fort.
  9. 15. – Enzyme breaking down starch (like sugar in your Christmas cookies).
  10. 17. – All systems together, like Santa delivering the magic of Christmas.
  11. 19. – Organisms with cells containing a nucleus, like Santa’s elves working in the North Pole.
  12. 21. – Liquid that emulsifies fat, made by the liver (think of it as the Christmas gravy for fats!).
