Across
- 7. animals, fungi, plants, and protists
- 9. surrounds the nucleus._______ protects the nucleus; contains nuclear pores
- 13. E. coli, streptococcus, methanogens, any bacteria
- 16. membrane regulates what enters and leaves the cell; acts as a barrier
- 20. the powerhouse of the cell
- 21. located in the cytoplasm of the cell; sometimes attached to the surface of the rough ER
- 22. contain powerful digestive enzymes to break down old or foreign cell parts
- 23. cells present in green plants, photosynthetic eukaryotes of the kingdom Plantae.
- 24. the basic unit of life
- 25. a porous membrane that encases the nucleus. The nuclear pores allow certain substance to pass into and out od the nucleus
Down
- 1. all living things are made of cells, cells come from preexisting cells, cells are the basic unit of structure and function of life
- 2. provides a roadway in which cellular substances can travel
- 3. small membrane-bound sacs
- 4. aids in cell division
- 5. ribonucleic acid
- 6. the process by which green plants and some other organisms use sunlight to synthesize foods from carbon dioxide and water.
- 8. the carrier of genetic information
- 10. organelle are suspended in this fluid-like substance; helps organelles move and grow
- 11. located in the nucleus; contains genetic information(DNA)
- 12. packages and delivers proteins to parts of the cell
- 14. type of eukaryotic cell that lacks a cell wall and has a true, membrane-bound nucleus along
- 15. located in the center of the nucleus
- 17. located outside the cell membrane(only in plant cells)
- 18. Makes the plant cell green; harvests energy from the sun to produce glucose
- 19. creates and distributes lipids
- 26. contains the genetic code required for cells to grow and function
