Across
  1. 4. Having an aversion to water
  2. 6. Polysaccharide that is used for storing energy in human muscle and liver cells is?
  3. 7. The unraveling or loss of shape of a protein due to altered environmental conditions
  4. 10. Lipids that form the main structural component of cell membranes are?
  5. 11. Polymers of amino acids
  6. 12. Chemical agents that selectively speed up chemical reactions without being consumed by the reaction
  7. 13. Protein molecules are polymers of these molecules because they consist of one or more polypeptides into specific conformations
  8. 15. The type of bond that forms to join monomers into monomers is this because they are strongly bonded to each other through the loss of a water molecule
  9. 16. Fat that consists of three fatty acids linked to one glycerol molecule
  10. 18. Cellulose is this and therefore this because it is constructed from monosaccharide glucose monomers
  11. 20. Fatty acids are joined to glycerol by these linkages
  12. 22. Specialized proteins that speed up chemical reactions in cells
Down
  1. 1. These simple sugar molecules, stored in polysaccharides such as glycogen in animals, are a major energy source for cellular work
  2. 2. An organic molecule consisting of only carbon and hydrogen
  3. 3. Having an affinity for water
  4. 5. Major energy storage compound of plant seeds
  5. 8. What is the process by which monomers are linked together to form polymers?
  6. 9. Compounds that mix poorly, if at all, with water
  7. 11. A covalent bond joining amino acids together to form a polypeptide
  8. 14. Huge molecules of these three classes- carbohydrates, proteins, and nucleic acids.
  9. 17. Protein molecule that assists in the proper folding of other proteins
  10. 19. The subunit that serves as the building block of a polymer
  11. 21. Compounds that have the same number of atoms of the same numbers of elements but different structures and hence different properties
