Day 7
Across
- 1. the process of diffusion of ions (usually H+ ions, also known as protons) across a selectively permeable membrane
- 4. the end-product of glycolysis
- 6. the action of breathing.
- 7. the metabolic pathway that converts glucose (C 6H 12O 6), into pyruvic acid ( CH 3COCO 2H).
- 9. a coenzyme that works with enzymes such as ATP triphosphatase to transfer energy to cells by releasing its phosphate groups.
- 10. the process of cellular respiration that takes place in the presence of oxygen gas to produce energy from food.
- 11. the chemical breakdown of a substance by bacteria, yeasts, or other microorganisms, typically involving effervescence and the giving off of heat.
- 13. An electron transport chain (ETC) is a series of protein complexes
Down
- 2. an organelle found in large numbers in most cells, in which the biochemical processes of respiration and energy production occur
- 3. cellular respiration, the process by which organisms combine oxygen with foodstuff molecules,
- 5. a series of enzyme catalyzed reactions that reduce the acetyl portion of acetyl coenzyme A in the mitochondrial matrix,
- 8. a molecule that participates in many biochemical reactions in protein, carbohydrate and lipid metabolism.
- 9. the process of cellular respiration that takes place in the presence of oxygen gas to produce energy from food.
- 12. the gelatinous liquid that fills the inside of a cell
