Macromolecules EOC Review 2025
Across
- 2. macromolecule used to build body structures and to speed up chemical reactions
- 4. because only the shape of the substrate changes in a reaction but not the shape of the enzyme, the enzymes are available to be ___________.
- 5. polysaccharide used by animals to store glucose for later
- 8. lipids that make up the main component of cell membranes
- 10. elements found in carbs, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids
- 11. this happens to an enzyme when the temperature is too high or the pH is too high or too low.
- 14. this is the number of types of substrates that enzymes can work on
- 16. building blocks/monomers of lipids
- 19. building blocks/monomers of carbohydrates
- 21. polysaccharide used by plants to store glucose for later
- 22. most important monosaccharide that most carbs are broken down into
- 23. anything that gets something "started"
- 24. element found only in nucleic acids
- 25. proteins that speed up chemical reactions in the body
Down
- 1. macromolecule found in cell membranes and also used in the body as energy storage
- 3. building blocks/monomers of nucleic acids
- 6. protein that builds bones, tendons, and skin making them strong and flexible
- 7. this determines the function of an enzyme
- 9. this is the result of an enzyme if the temperature is too cold
- 10. macromolecule used for immediate energy
- 12. building blocks/monomers of proteins
- 13. element found only in proteins and nucleic acids
- 15. macromolecule that codes for proteins in a sequence of nucleotides
- 17. animals get nitrogen and phosphorus from eating plants; plants get nitrogen and phosphorus here
- 18. polysaccharide in the cell walls of plants; made of repeating glucose units
- 20. this is lowered by enzymes causing a reaction to get started more quickly
