1. The basic building block of all forms of life nucleus --cell

2. The rigid wall of plant cells that surrounds the cell membrane-- cell wall

3. The tiny body that contains chlorophyll --chloroplast

4. Carries the genes or inheritance units of a cell --chromosome

5. A protein and fat structure serving as a covering and enclosure for a cell -- membrane

6. The protoplasmic substance separate from the cytoplasm --nucleus

7. The organic substance making up the cells of all living things-- protoplasm

8. The protoplasmic unit of a cell -- protoplast

9. A cell storage body that increases in size with age--vacuole

Explanation;the cell is the basic unit of life. All living organisms are made up of cells.it is made up of the cell membrane and the protoplasm.the protoplasm is the content of the cell while the cell membrane Is the covering of the cell. Cell contains organelles within it which performs specific functions. These function are necessary for the proper functioning of the cell and the organism at large. A cell may be prokaryotic or eukaryotic. A prokaryotic cell usually lacks membrane bound organelles,such as the nucleus. Example of prokaryotes are bacteria and archaea.

Eukaryotes have membrane bound organelles. Examples are plant and animal cells. There are some difference in the plant and animal cell.for example, a plant cell may contain a vacuole, chlorophyll etc which are absent in animal cell.

An animal cell has centrioles which a plant cell lacks.
