      Do you not have any ideas for any of the answers? Also I think the number of letters for a couple of them may be wrong by one.

      I’m pretty sure the numbers aren’t wrong unless i have lost the ability to count and i think some answers could be (in order posted)
      1.organelles
      2.depend
      no clue on the rest.

      1. complex
      2. digests
      Cellular shapes – no idea

      The composition of protoplasm is continuously changing, therefore, thousands of different (molecules?- not 10 letters but i am sure it is not organelles, as they are not brought into the cell) are brought into or made by the cell. 10-letter word.
      Each cell within a multicellular organism (relies) on another because different cells perform different functions. 7-letter word.
      (Changes?)may occur in the cell shape of some unicellular organisms as life funtions are carried out. 7-letter word.

      relies can be substituted for depends.
      and i would also say changes on the last one

      Sorry to bother everyone but i need some serious help on analogies of organelles.
      I need 2 find analogies 4 these (they can be related 2 anything)
      Please help its due tomorrow.
      I have some ideas but feel free 2 correct me.

      Your teacher sets strange homeworks, wouldnt it be easier and more useful for him just to get you to write definitions?

      for the 10 letter words, it’s substances (both molecules and ions).

      i’ve always found this type of exercise terribly unscientific. Sure, you can do some analogies to better understand the role of some organelles, but all the organelles in a cell do more than one thing. for example, the ER is not only a circulatory apparatus of the cell, it is also the site where membrane and secreted proteins are made, the site of disulfide bond formation, the site of the first protein modifications such as carbohydrate addition and signal peptide cleavage, the place where Calcium is stored, the place where most phospholipids are made etc. See what i mean?
