  1. 7. Membrane-bound structures found in eukaryotic cells that have specialized functions.
  2. 9. A protective layer external to the plasma membrane in plant cells, bacteria, fungi, and some protists. In the case of plant cells, the wall is formed of cellulose fibers embedded in a polysaccharide-protein matrix.
  3. 11. A type of cell lacking a nucleus and membrane-enclosed organelles; Bacteria.
  4. 13. Chromosome-containing organelle of a eukaryotic cell.

  4. 4. A photosynthetic organelle found only in plants and photosynthetic protists.
  5. 5. The contents of the cell, exclusive of the nucleus. Made of fluid, cytosol, and organelles.
  6. 6. A structure in an animal cell, which are involved in cell division.
  7. 8. Organelle constructed in the nucleus. The site of protein synthesis in the cytoplasm.
  8. 10. A membrane-enclosed bag of enzymes. Digest waste products of the cell.
