Down: 1) A two-phase nuclear division that ends in the eventual production o gamete s with half the normal number of chromosomes2) A complex set of chemical reactions involving an energy transformation where potential chemical energy in the bonds of "food" molecules is released and partially captured in the bonds of ATP molecules4) A single piece of DNA and associated proteins found in linear forms in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells and circular forms in the cytoplasm of prokaryotic cells; contains genes that encodes traits. Each species has a characteristic number of chromosomes5) A membrane-bound found in most eukaryotic cells; site of cellular respiration6) A group of membrane-bound organelles commonly found in photosynthetic organisms and mainly responsible for the synthesis and storage of food7) The study of energy flow into and within living systems9) The transportation of materials across a plasma membrane without using energy10) A nuclear division resulting in the production of two somatic cells having the same genetic complement as the original cell15) A thin phospholipid and protein molecule bilayer that encapsulates a cell and controls the movement of materials in and out of the cell through active or passive transport16) The long-lasting phase of the cell cycle in which a cell preforms the majority of its function, such as preparing for nuclear division and cytokinesis18) The processes in which sister chromatids fail to separate during and after mitosis or meiosis19) A cellular structure composed of RNA and proteins that is the site of protein synthesis in eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells20) A membrane-bound organelle in eukaryotic cells functioning to maintain the integrity of the genetic material and, and through the expression of that material, controlling and regulating cellular activities Across: 3) The series of events that take place in cell leading to its duplication. The main phases are interphase, nuclear division, and cytokinesis.8) A single-cells organisms that lacks a nucleus and specialized organelles11) Turning sun light into energy12) Located inside a cell13) The movement of water or another solvent through permeable membranes from an area of higher water concentration to an area of lower concentration14) Any of several molecular mechanisms in which ions or molecules are transported across a cellular membrane requiring the use of an energy source17) Made up of one or more cells21) A molecule that provides energy for cellular reactions/processes. ATP releases energy when one of its high-energy bonds are broken to release a phosphate group.22) An exchange of genetic material between homologous chromosomes during anaphase I of meiosis; contributes to the genetic variability in gametes and ultimately in offsprings23) An organelle found in plant cells and other cells of eukaryotic photosynthetic organisms where photosynthesis occurs24) Made up of a single cell25) Not allowing a substance or substances to pass26) A specialized cell used in sexual reproduction containing half the normal number of chromosomes of a somatic cell.
