| the _____ _____ enables the nucleus to maintain an environment different from the rest of the cell. | nuclear membrane |
| _____ is a structure which holds a pair of chromatids together. | centromere |
| _____ are structures where oxygen is required to produce energy for the cell. | mitochondria |
| what are proteins and why are they vital to a cell? | nutrientts in all living things use for cell growth and repair |
