Across
- 2. A type of inhibitor that is an off switch for an enzyme's active site
- 4. A type of reaction that is spontaneous because it releases energy. Delta G is negative.
- 9. Disorganized energy and is related to the 2nd law of thermodynamics
- 10. Binds to active site competing with substrate. (2 words)
- 13. The end product of a metabolic pathway shuts down the pathway which helps to prevent a cell from wasting chemical resources. (2 words)
- 16. A type of energy that is the initial energy that is required to destabilize the existing bonds to initiate a chemical reaction.
- 18. A type of energy that is defined as chemical. It is stored energy, like a rock sitting on the edge of a cliff.
- 19. Non protein enzyme helpers. They help increase rate of reaction time or may be required for an enzyme to function, a lot of vitamins are these.
- 20. A chemical agent that speeds up chemical reactions without being consumed.
Down
- 1. On switch for an enzyme's active site (2 words)
- 3. Defined as the ability to do work
- 5. Binds to another part of an enzyme causing it to change shape thus making it less active (2 words)
- 6. A type of reaction that is not spontaneous because it needs energy. Delta G is positive.
- 7. State right before the molecules break down in a chemical reaction
- 8. A linked series of chemical reactions occurring within a cell. It builds and breaks down molecules for cellular processes (2 words)
- 11. ATP drives an endergonic reaction by ______ which is transferring a phosphate group to another molecule
- 12. A type of energy that is associated with movement. An example is a skier flying through the air.
- 14. To do work cells much manage energy _____
- 15. A type of pathway that's breaking down large molecules and releasing energy.
- 17. A type of pathway that consumes energy and is used to build large molecules from smaller subunits
