Across
- 2. type of reproduction where two parents combine their genetic material to produce a new organism, which differs from both parents
- 3. provides protection and support for plant cells only.
- 4. The basic unit of structure and function in all organisms

- 6. something that you are taught or learn from experience
- 9. body system made of skin, hair, nails
- 10. threadlike structure made of DNA molecules that contain the genes
- 12. storage for water, food, waste
- 14. a trait that is apparent only when two for the same characteristic are inherited
- 17. A group of tissues that work together to perform a specific function
- 18. characteristic, quality, or tendency that someone or something has
- 19. contains DNA (genetic material) and controls the cell's actions.
- 23. a characteristic passed on from a parent to an offspring like eye color

Down
- 1. controls what can enter/exit the cell.

- 13. jelly-like liquid that supports other organelles in the cell.
- 15. body system that filters out fluid and waste from the body
- 16. A group of cells that perform a specific function
- 20. Process by which a single parent reproduces by itself
- 21. bean-shaped and provides the cell with energy by breaking down sugars.
- 22. Passing of traits from parents to offspring
- 24. A complex molecule containing the genetic information that makes up the chromosomes.
