Across
- 3. Pigment that add the blue and purple colors in flowers.
- 6. Plant cell organelle that is mostly responsible for photosynthesis, and contains both accessory pigments (like carotenoids) and chlorophyll a and b.
- 13. An aggregation of microfibrils, visible with the light microscope.
- 14. Plastid that stores lipids.
- 15. Light deprived plastid. Will become a chloroplast if exposed to light.
- 17. Embryonic plastid, usually found in rapidly dividing cells.
- 18. Secondary metabolite used in essential oils.
- 20. One of the most important constituents of the secondary cell wall of land plants. It waterproofs the cell.
- 21. Colourless plastid.
Down
- 1. Pigment that reflects orange and yellow light.
- 2. Pigment that refrects green and absorbed red and blue light.
- 4. Space or cavity within cytoplasm filled with cell sap.
- 5. A colored plastid that lacks chlorophyll, but is rich in carotenoids. Used to color fruits and flowers.
- 7. Structural polysaccharide contained in the primary cell wall of land plants.
- 8. Living part of the cell, excluding the nucleus.
- 9. Matrix of the cytoplasm. Nitrogen rich.
- 10. Plastid that stores starch.
- 11. Pigment that reflects yellow light.
- 12. Secondary metabolite that have pronounced physiological actions on humans.
- 13. A threadlike component of the cell wall, composed of cellulose molecules.
- 16. Gaps in the secondary cell wall that extend from a plastid.
- 19. Collective protoplasm throughout the whole plant body.
