Across
- 3. The first stage of mitosis, during which the chromosomes condense and become visible, the nuclear membrane breaks down, and the spindle apparatus forms at opposite poles of the cell.
- 4. When solute is greater inside the cell.
- 6. Responsible for breaking down food into energy for the cell.
- 8. This is the product of photosynthesis.
- 10. Movement of a solvent through a semipermeable membrane into a solution of higher solute concentration that tends to equalize the concentrations of solute on the two sides of the membrane.
- 12. Helps identify the cell and act as a binding site.
- 13. The chemical breakdown of a substance by bacteria, yeasts, or other microorganisms.
- 15. This type of fermentation is the process that occurs in bacteria and yeast but not animals.
- 17. When water and solute are equal both inside and outside of the cell.
- 18. This organelle is the digestive center for a cell.
Down
- 1. This type of respiration occurs when there isn't enough oxygen.
- 2. This type of respiration is the process of producing cellular energy involving oxygen.
- 5. The process by which green plants and some other organisms use sunlight to synthesize foods from carbon dioxide and water.
- 7. Organism that makes their own food.
- 9. Type of cell division that results in two daughter cells each having the same number and kind of chromosomes as the parent nucleus.
- 11. When solute is greater outside the cell.
- 12. The cytoplasmic division of a cell at the end of mitosis or meiosis, bringing about the separation into two daughter cells.
- 14. Storage centers for the cell.
- 16. Acid This type of fermentation is the process that occurs in bacteria and animals.
- 18. Photosynthesis occurs in this place on a plant.
