Across
- 2. change in genetic code; most have no effect
- 5. double-stranded nucleic acid; never leaves the nucleus
- 6. process by which energy from the sun is stored in glucose; opposite cellular respiration
- 8. movement of water across a membrane
- 10. cell transport system; may be rough or smooth
- 13. glycolysis is ______ because no oxygen is required
- 14. biomolecule made up of amino acids
- 16. can cause mutations; radiation and chemicals are examples
- 18. type of cell with defined nucleus and organelles
- 19. movement of molecules from high to low concentrations
- 20. cell division that results in genetic variation
Down
- 1. organelle that captures solar energy for photosynthesis
- 3. cell division that results in identical cells
- 4. biomolecule used for long-term energy; fats & oils
- 7. type of cell with no nuclear membrane
- 9. respiration process by which energy from glucose is released; opposite reaction of photosynthesis
- 11. biomolecule used as a quick energy source
- 12. type of transport that requires energy since movement is against the concentration gradient
- 15. organelle that transforms energy through respiration; powerhouse
- 17. speeds up chemical reactions by lowering activation energy
