Enzyme
Across
- 3. is the process of breaking down large molecules into smaller ones
- 7. is one that absorbs free energy from surroundings
- 8. is describes the active site as having a set shape. The substrate molecules fit perfectly into active site, like a key in a lock. Once in the active site, the chemical reaction can take place.
- 9. is describes a flexible active site that changes shape, or conforms, to the substrate as they bond together.
- 11. is the other molecules which inhibit the activity of enzymes, That is, they reduce or stop the enzyme from functioning. Reducing enzyme activity also reduces the reaction of the enzyme.
- 12. is the organic molecule such as vitamins and NAD+.Organic cofactor are also called coenzymes
Down
- 1. is the energy required to start any reaction
- 2. is a new substance formed from chemical reaction of reactants
- 4. is the process of making large molecules from smaller ones
- 5. is a substance that undergoes a chemical change and is consumed during a chemical reaction to form new substances called productsa
- 6. is the sum of all the chemical reactions occurring in that cell
- 10. is one that has a net release of free energy
