Across
- 3. Enzyme Substrate ____: When an enzyme and substrate only interact with their specific counterpart
- 5. when an enzyme or substrate is attached to a solid material and is prevented from moving around
- 8. Reaction in which polymers or complex molecules are broken down into their simpler form
- 9. A molecule that speeds up the rate of a chemical reaction. An enzyme is one.
- 11. Enzyme ____ reaction that is sped up by the presence of an enzyme
- 13. Enzyme reactions that convert into energy via a network of interacting chemical reactions
- 15. A chemical reaction involved in catabolic reactions, where a water molecule is added to a macromolecule to break it down into its individual parts. Inverse to a condensation reaction
- 17. Factor that can denature an enzyme if it is too high or low
- 18. A molecule that serves as a building block for more complex molecules
Down
- 1. Amount of energy needed for a reaction to take place and for reactants to be transformed into enzymes. Minimum amount is lowered by catalysts.
- 2. Change to a protein that causes it to no longer be able to function. Temperature and pH are agents of this change
- 4. Model of enzyme catalyst where the enzyme alters the shape of its active site in order to accommodate the substrate
- 6. theory Theory that for a reaction to occur, the reactants must collide in the correct orientation and with the right amount of energy
- 7. Place on an enzyme where a reaction takes place
- 10. Molecules/substances found in all living organisms that serve as a catalyst/speed up chemical reactions in the body. Necessary for life.
- 12. Reaction in which monomers are synthesized into polymers/building up of simpler molecules into a more complex molecule
- 14. Factor that can denature an enzyme if it is too basic or acidic
- 16. Model of enzyme catalyst where the substrate is the perfect fit in the active site of the enzyme
