Across
  1. 3. structure in the nucleus that helps to synthesize ribosomes.
  2. 5. pores or channels between plant cell walls that allow molecules and communication signals to pass between individual plant cells.
  3. 8. membrane bound structure containing the DNA
  4. 9. tiny hole within the nuclear membrane that allows nucleic acids and proteins to move into and out of the nucleus.
  5. 11. large network of membranes composed of two regions, a rough one and a smooth one. It synthesizes proteins and lipids.
  6. 15. gel-like substance within the cell membrane containing water, enzymes, salts, organelles, and organic molecules.
  7. 16. responsible for protein assembly.
Down
  1. 1. responsible for manufacturing, storing and shipping certain cellular products.
  2. 2. outer covering that protects the plant cell and gives it shape.
  3. 4. a thin, semi-permeable membrane that surrounds the cytoplasm of a cell.
  4. 6. where photosynthesis occurs.
  5. 7. tiny structures bound by a single membrane that contain enzymes that produce hydrogen peroxide as a by-product. Involved in plant processes
  6. 10. hollow rods that function primarily to help support and shape the cell.
  7. 12. network of fibers throughout the cytoplasm that helps the cell maintain its shape and gives support to the cell.
  8. 13. kind of organelles which generate energy by converting glucose and oxygen into ATP through cellular aerobic respiration
  9. 14. large liquid-filled structure that provides support and participates in a variety of cellular functions
