Across
- 6. cell organelle filled with enzymes needed to break down certain materials in the cell
- 7. Break down fatty acids and produce hydrogen peroxide
- 10. Clusters of DNA, RNA, and proteins in the nucleus of a cell
- 12. A unicellular organism that lacks a nucleus and membrane bound organelles
- 13. A small ring of DNA that carries accessory genes separate from those of the bacterial chromosome
- 14. Cell organelle that stores materials such as water, salts, proteins, and carbohydrates
- 16. bacteria
- 18. Hairlike projections that extend from the plasma membrane and are used for locomotion
- 19. A part of the cell containing DNA and RNA and responsible for growth and reproduction
- 20. Found inside the nucleus and produces ribosomes
- 21. A network of fibers that holds the cell together, helps the cell to keep its shape, and aids in movement
Down
- 1. An organelle found in plant and algae cells where photosynthesis occurs
- 2. A jellylike fluid inside the cell in which the organelles are suspended
- 3. A substance (made of sugars) that is common in the cell walls of many organisms
- 4. A long, hairlike structure that grows out of a cell and enables the cell to move.
- 5. Powerhouse of the cell, organelle that is the site of ATP (energy) production
- 8. A tiny cell structure that carries out a specific function within the cell
- 9. Makes proteins for the cell
- 10. a minute cylindrical organelle near the nucleus in animal cells, occurring in pairs and involved in the development of spindle fibers in cell division.
- 11. A eukaryotic organism that cannot be classified as an animal, plant, or fungus.
- 15. A cell that contains a nucleus and membrane bound organelles
- 17. A sticky layer that surrounds the cell walls of some bacteria, protecting the cell surface and sometimes helping to glue the cell to surfaces.
