Every living thing is built from cells, and inside each one a set of tiny structures called organelles does the work of life. The nucleus holds the instructions, the membrane controls what enters and leaves, and mitochondria release energy. Ribosomes build proteins, a vacuole stores water and waste, and in plants a chloroplast captures sunlight while a stiff wall gives support. This puzzle gathers eleven terms from the world inside a cell.
Some puzzle books print word find on the cover and others print word search. This cells grid works for either.
