Chapter 22 - Metabolic Pathways for Carbohydrates
Across
- 2. The synthesis of glucose from molecules from noncarbohydrate sources.
- 3. An oxygen-containing environment in the cells.
- 5. The organelle of cells where energy-releasing reactions take place.
- 8. A metabolic reaction that requires energy to build large molecules from small molecules.
- 9. All the chemical reactions in living cells that carry out molecular and energy transformations.
- 10. The loss of a carbon atom in the form of CO2.
- 13. A metabolic reaction that releases energy for the cell by the degradation and oxidation of glucose and other molecules.
- 16. A coenzyme that transports acyl and acetyl groups (CoA).
- 18. A cyclic process in which lactate produced in muscle is transferred to the liver to be converted to glucose, which can be used again by muscle.
- 19. A high-energy compound that stores energy in the cells; consists of adenine, a ribose sugar, and three phosphate groups.
- 20. The synthesis of glycogen from glucose molecules.
- 21. The fluid of the cell, which is an aqueous solution of electrolytes and enzymes.
Down
- 1. The hydrogen acceptor (NAD+) used in oxidation reactions that form carbon–oxygen double bonds.
- 4. The processes in the gastrointestinal tract that break down large food molecules to smaller ones that pass through the intestinal membrane into the bloodstream.
- 6. A coenzyme (FAD) for dehydrogenase enzymes that form carbon–carbon double bonds.
- 7. A metabolic pathway that oxidizes glucose to produce NADPH for anabolic reactions and five-carbon sugars required for the synthesis of nucleotides.
- 11. The breakdown of glycogen into glucose molecules.
- 12. The compound that forms when a two-carbon acetyl unit bonds to coenzyme A.
- 14. The anaerobic conversion of glucose by enzymes in yeast to yield ethanol and CO2.
- 15. A condition in cells when there is no oxygen.
- 17. The compound formed by the hydrolysis of ATP; consists of adenine, a ribose sugar, and two phosphate groups.
- 20. The 10 oxidation reactions of glucose that yield two pyruvate molecules.
