3. Structures in the nucleus made of DNA that carry instructions for growth and reproduction
5. Unicellular organisms, usually prokaryotes, that can live almost anywhere and form colonies
7. The control center of a eukaryotic cell that holds DNA and directs activities like MRS GREN
8. A tool that magnifies tiny things, like cells, so we can study them
10. Unicellular or multicellular organisms with chloroplasts that make food from sunlight
11. A unicellular organism with no nucleus - its DNA floats free inside

14. membrane The outer layer of all cells that controls what goes in and out
18. A living thing made of just one cell that does all life processes by itself

1. An organism with cells that have a nucleus to hold DNA
2. Parts inside cells that use sunlight to make food
4. A structure made of different tissues that work together to perform a big job in an organism
6. The order of how living things are built: cells→tissues→organs→ systems→ organism
9. A unicellular eukaryote that uses respiration to break down sugar and can reproduce quickly
13. A living thing made of many cells that work together to perform life processes
15. Wall A tough outer layer around plant cells that provides structure
16. The molecule inside cells that carries instructions for life, like growth and reproduction
17. Groups of similar cells working together to do a specific job in a multicellular organism
