Across
- 1. structure in the nucleus which assembles ribosomes
- 3. The molecule that provides energy for the cell.
- 4. A protective layer that surrounds the cell membrane.
- 5. Vesicles that contain enzymes to break stuff down, animal cells only
- 6. Microtubules that help pull the DNA apart during cell division.
- 7. Molecules which do not dissolve in water; "water fearing."
- 8. ER that does not have any ribosomes attached to it.
- 12. A cell organelle which manufactures the cells energy molecule, ATP.
- 15. The types of lipid which make up the cell membrane.
- 17. A storage "sack" in the cytoplasm that holds food or wastes.
- 18. The study of cells.
- 21. lower the activation energy of reactions enough to allow them to occur safely in biological systems.
- 23. The state of being equal or even.
- 24. A mode of transport that does not require the cell to use any energy.
Down
- 2. Jelly-like substance the cell organelles float in
- 4. A type of plastid that performs photosynthesis.
- 9. Molecules which dissolve in water; "water loving."
- 10. Organelles that make proteins.
- 11. ER that has many ribosomes attached to it.
- 13. Units inside all cells which perform certain functions/tasks.
- 14. The movement of molecules from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration.
- 16. A solution whose concentration of solute is lower than inside the cell.
- 19. The barrier around all cells which protects them from the outside world.
- 20. Organelles that either perform photosynthesis, or store material such as starch. They are found only in plants and algae.
- 22. requires the cell to use energy in order to move molecules across the membrane.
