  4. 13. building blocks of lipids
  5. 17. proteins that speed up chemical reactions
  6. 18. product in plants and yeast as a result of anaerobic respiration
  7. 19. organic compound used to build body structures and to speed up chemical reactions
  8. 21. compared to anaerobic respiration, aerobic respiration makes ______ ATP.
  9. 23. if this is too high, it will cause an enzyme to denature and make it nonfunctional
  10. 24. protein in blood that regulates blood sugar levels
  11. 26. type of respiration that requires oxygen and makes A LOT of ATP

Down
  1. 1. in eukaryote cells, this is the location of DNA storage, replication, and transcription; contains the instructions to make PROTEINS
  2. 3. holes in plants leaves through which water and oxygen exits and carbon dioxide enters
  3. 4. process that converts light energy into chemical energy
  4. 5. organic compound used for immediate energy
  5. 6. building blocks of carbohydrates
  6. 7. pH lower than 7

  8. 10. this substance moves up from the roots of a plant and is needed for photosynthesis
  9. 12. cell part where cellular respiration takes place
  10. 14. double stranded nucleic acid that serves as the code for creating a strand of amino acids that will fold be become a protein
