  1. 4. organelle inside eukaryotic cells that contains most of the cell’s DNA and acts as the control center of the cell.
  2. 7. structure within the cytoplasm of a cell that is enclosed within a membrane and performs a specific job.
  3. 8. coiled structure made of DNA and protein that is present during cell division and visible with a light microscope.
  4. 9. single-celled prokaryotic organism that is a member of the Bacteria domain.
  5. 10. cell without a nucleus or other membrane-bound organelles
  6. 13. double-stranded nucleic acid that stores genetic information; also known as deoxyribonucleic acid.
  7. 14. organelle in eukaryotic cells that uses energy stored in glucose to make ATP, which cells can use for energy.
  8. 15. organelle in eukaryotic cells that helps make and transport proteins and lipids; types include rough ER and smooth ER
  9. 16. a lipid that contains a phosphate group and is a major component of cell membranes.
  10. 17. composed of more than one cell
  11. 18. multicellular, heterotrophic eukaryote with specialized cells that lack cell walls; member of the animal kingdom.
  12. 21. organelle in eukaryotic cells that modifies, sorts, and packages proteins for secretion out of the cell, or for use within the cell, also involved in the transport of lipids
  13. 22. a group of organisms that can mate with one another to produce fertile offspring.
  14. 23. thin coat of phospholipids that surrounds a cell and controls what enters and leaves the cell.

  1. 1. structure found in all cells that is the site of protein synthesis.
  2. 2. organism that has cells containing a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles
  3. 3. process in which cells make proteins; includes transcription (DNA to mRNA) and translation (mRNA to protein).
  4. 5. cell that contains a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles.
  5. 6. DNA and RNA
  6. 11. organic compound made up of amino acids.
  7. 12. an individual living thing.
  8. 16. single-celled organism that lacks a nucleus and other membrane-bound organelles.
  9. 19. material inside the cell membrane, including the watery cytosol and other cell structures except the nucleus if one is present
  10. 20. eukaryotic organism in the fungus kingdom, includes mushrooms and yeast.
