Across
- 1. The basic units of life that make up all living organisms
- 2. The organelles within plant cells in which helps the photosynthesis
- 4. The anaerobic breakdown of glucose that results in the production of ethanol and carbon dioxide (alcoholic fermentation) or lactic acid (lactic acid fermentation)
- 6. Hydrophobic organic molecules, many of which include fatty acid primary component
- 8. The process in plants and some other organisms in which light energy from the Sun is converted into chemical energy in organic molecules
- 10. Eukaryotic organelles that break down organic molecules to produce ATP
- 11. Organisms whose cells have a true nucleus, such as protists, animplants, and fungi
- 12. Organic molecules composed of folded chains of amino acids
- 13. A structure within eukaryotic cells that is surrounded by a double membrane and that contains the cell’s DNA
Down
- 1. The DNA-containing structures within cells
- 3. A form of cell division in which one cell divides into two daughteeach of which contains the same genetic information as the parent cell
- 5. Structures within the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells that performs functions in the cell
- 7. The organelles within plant cells in which photosynthesis occurs
- 8. Single-celled organisms, such as bacteria and archaea, whose cells lack a nucleus
- 9. The study of life and living organisms
