energy and enzymes
Across
- 2. the requirements an enzyme has for what substrate(s) it takes
- 8. a reaction that is nonspontaneous, endothermic, and has a decrease in disorder
- 9. a set of biochemical reactions that sustain life
- 10. a protein that is used as a catalyst in metabolic reactions
- 11. use of water in a reaction to break bonds
- 12. the site in the enzyme where the substrate binds
- 13. an organism that must consume other organisms for food
- 14. a compound that is not consumed in a reaction and that is used in a reaction to lower activation energy and increase rate of the reaction
- 16. the energy that a reaction needs in order to go to completion
- 19. the process in metabolism that converts subunits to larger macromolecules
- 22. the intermediate(s) in a reaction where the activation energy is at its highest
- 24. an organism that uses light for metabolic processes
- 26. the change in gibbs free energy that tells us whether a reaction is spontaneous or nonspontaneous
- 27. a type of inhibitor that binds to the allosteric site
- 28. a reaction that is spontaneous, exothermic, and has an increase in disorder
- 29. the complex formed when the substrate binds to the enzyme
Down
- 1. adenosine attached to three phosphates and is the highest energy form
- 2. a type of reaction that does not require an input of energy
- 3. the reactant(s) that will be converted into products
- 4. a site in the enzyme where an inhibitor can bind and slow down or stop a reaction
- 5. an organic molecule that participates in the reaction but comes out unchanged
- 6. potential energy stored in the bonds between atoms
- 7. a type of inhibitor that binds to the active site
- 12. an organism with the ability to make their own food
- 15. the process in metabolism that converts macromolecules to subunits
- 17. an organism that uses chemical compounds for metabolic processes
- 18. stored energy
- 19. adenosine attached to two phosphates
- 20. adenosine attached to one phosphate and is the lowest energy form
- 21. energy currently being used
- 23. an inorganic ion that temporarily bonds to the enzyme
- 25. a phenomenon where the enzyme undergoes conformational changes when reacting
