- 14. modify the active site of the enzyme to increase its affinity for the substrate
- 15. ___ refers to an enzyme slightly altering its active site to optimize its affinity for its substrate

Down
- 1. the breakdown of glucose into two pyruvate molecules
- 2. jelly-like fluid containing cytosol, water, salts, organic molecules, and organelles
- 3. any reaction that requires energy
- 4. storage organelle to hold water and other materials; much larger in plant cells as it must regulate water content in the cell

- 8. particles of light
- 11. ______ transport requires energy to move molecules across the membrane
- 13. In ______ Reactions, water is split and the electrons are excited from sunlight, producing ATP and high-energy electrons in stored in NADPH
- 16. lipid molecule with hydrophilic head and hydrophobic fatty acid tails; make up the bilayer of the cell membrane
- 18. proteins span or sit atop the plasma membrane and have a variety of functions
- 21. substance that absorb visible light, reflecting colors it cannot absorb
