CELL BIOLOGY

by JPahk

2: This class of macromolecules is made of amino acid chains; get yours from meat, milk, and eggs.

4: The cellular organelle containing the genetic material is called this, just like the center of an atom.

6: This 5-carbon sugar is used to form the nucleotides which make the backbone of DNA.

8: This bilayer of lipid molecules separates a cell from its surroundings.

10: In plants, photosynthesis occurs within this organelle.

PROTECT YOURSELF

3: On a golf course, if you're yelling a warning from the tee of a 410-yard hole, you're probably not going to make this par score.

6: The name of this short-legged, webbed-footed bird, Anas platyrhincos, is also the term for a cricket score of zero.

9: A rib in a wooden ship's frame, or what a lumberjack might say when he cuts down the tree to make the rib.

12: This word is traditionally yelled by U. S. soldiers when they hear enemy artillery shells in the air.

15: Joseph Hooker led an assault on this mountain outside Chattanooga, Tennessee on November 24, 1863.

2: This class of macromolecules is made of amino acid chains; get yours from meat, milk, and eggs.

PROTEINS

4: The cellular organelle containing the genetic material is called this, just like the center of an atom.

NUCLEUS

6: This 5-carbon sugar is used to form the nucleotides which make the backbone of DNA.

DEOXYRIBOSE (The "D" in DNA)

8: This bilayer of lipid molecules separates a cell from its surroundings.

MEMBRANE (Wall is no good, since I'm told it is neither a bilayer nor a lipid.)

10: In plants, photosynthesis occurs within this organelle.

CHLOROPLASTS

PROTECT YOURSELF

3: On a golf course, if you're yelling a warning from the tee of a 410-yard hole, you're probably not going to make this par score.

FOUR (fore! Get it? Get it? Sigh . . . )

6: The name of this short-legged, webbed-footed bird, Anas platyrhincos, is also the term for a cricket score of zero.

DUCK

9: A rib in a wooden ship's frame, or what a lumberjack might say when he cuts down the tree to make the rib.

TIMBER

12: This word is traditionally yelled by U. S. soldiers when they hear enemy artillery shells in the air.

INCOMING (accept variants)

15: Joseph Hooker led an assault on this mountain outside Chattanooga, Tennessee on November 24, 1863.

LOOKOUT Mountain

2 - protein
4 - nucleus

8 - plasma membrane (also phospholipid bilayer cell membrane - I would have said cell membrane but "cell" is in the question, and I'm not sure if you want the "phospho" part. The question is just a tad vague as written.)
10 - chloroplast

3 - four/fore - not sure if you are asking for the number or the warning
6 - duck

15 - Lookout
