Question

cell organelles and structures
down

1. the cell membrane is essential for a cell to maintain balance, which we call _.
2. the structure found in all cells that acts like a barrier of the cell, controlling what enters and leaves the cell.
3. the organelle responsible for inspecting and packaging proteins.
4. plant cells have a large, central storage _.
5. the part of the endoplasmic reticulum with proteins attached.
6. plants store _ and other essential nutrients in the vacuole.
7. the organelle that acts like a highway transporting proteins around the cell.

across

1. the part of the endoplasmic reticulum without proteins attached.
2. the organelle responsible for energy production.
3. the site of protein synthesis.
4. a thick, rigid barrier found outside of the cell membrane in plant cells.
5. the control center of the cell.
6. the organelle responsible for capturing energy from the sun and converting it into chemical energy.

Explanation:

1. Homeostasis is the state of balance a cell maintains, which the cell - membrane helps with.
2. The cell - membrane is the structure that controls what enters and leaves the cell.
3. The Golgi apparatus inspects and packages proteins.
4. Plant cells have a large central vacuole for storage.
5. The rough endoplasmic reticulum has proteins attached, while the smooth endoplasmic reticulum does not.
6. Plants store water and other nutrients in the vacuole.
7. The endoplasmic reticulum acts like a highway for transporting proteins.
8. Mitochondria are responsible for energy production.
9. Ribosomes are the site of protein synthesis.
10. The cell wall is a thick, rigid barrier outside the cell - membrane in plant cells.
11. The nucleus is the control center of the cell.
12. Chloroplasts capture energy from the sun and convert it into chemical energy.
