- 2. Any nonprotein molecule or ion that is required for the proper functioning of an enzyme.
- 4. non protein molecule that activated the enzyme, can be viatmins or made from vitamines
- 6. respiration, the process by which cells use oxygen to produce energy from food
- 8. Alcohol made by converting starches and sugars from plant material into alcohol and CO2.
- 13. bonds, the attractive force that holds atoms or ions together
- 14. a substance that causes or hastens a chemical reaction; any agent that causes change
- 16. proteins that act as biological catalysts
- 17. energy, Energy needed to get a reaction started

Down
- 1. Conversion of light energy from the sun into chemical energy.
- 3. involved in the synthesis of organic molecules from carbon dioxide and water.
- 4. Cycle, energy from ATP and NADPH is used to build sugars
- 5. respiration, the process by which cells use oxygen to produce energy from food
- 7. energy, energy available to do work
- 9. acid, product of fermentation in many types of cells, including human muscle cells
- 10. respiration, Respiration that does not require oxygen
- 11. lesser amount of hydrogen ion concentration, higher pH
