Across
- 2. Spherical membrane bound sac-like structure that contains digestive enzymes. It can be referred to as the clean-up crew or maintenance department of the cell.
- 6. Allows certain substances to pass through but not others. Like in the cell membrane.
- 7. An organelle found in animal cells that is made up of microtubules and is usually only visible during cell division. This organelle helps to divide the chromosomes.
- 8. Molecule that stores and provides energy for cells in all living organisms.
- 9. Sac like or bubble like membrane structure that is used to store and or transport things in or out of the cell.
- 11. Membrane bound organelle found in plant cells used for making food, storing food, and storing pigments.
- 12. A substance found in the nucleus of a cell, which is made up of proteins (histones) and DNA (sometimes RNA). During mitosis this substance forms the chromosomes.
Down
- 1. A semi-permeable phospholipid bilayer structure found as part of all types of cells. It functions as a barrier that separates the inside of the cell from its environment.
- 3. Structure found in most types of cells that is responsible to make proteins
- 4. Any of the structures found in eukaryotic cells that perform a specific task for the cell
- 5. In plant and plant-like cells it is a ridged semi-permeable structure that surrounds the outer most boundary of the cell
- 10. The fluid like substance that fills the cell. It is the matrix that contains all of the organelles of the cell and is the site for much of the work inside the cell.
