Across
- 2. CHO (2:1 of H:O)
- 4. chain of amino acids
- 9. many monosaccharides combined together (cellulose is an example)
- 10. one of the building blocks of lipids that combines with 3 fatty acids to form triglycerides
- 11. monomers of proteins
- 16. CHON; the most versatile of all biomolecules; does the most different kinds of jobs for a cell
- 17. a protein that speeds up the rate of a chemical reaction by lowering the activation energy
- 18. the starting chemicals ("ingredients") of a chemical reaction
- 20. the ending chemicals of a chemical reaction
- 21. CHO (no 2:1 of H:O); polymers such as fats and oils; made by the combination of triglyceride and fatty acids
- 22. the spot on an enzyme where the substrate binds
Down
- 1. the reactants in an enzyme-catalyzed reaction
- 3. a chemical reaction in which the reactants start with more energy than the products ("energy out")
- 5. 2 monosaccharides combined together by dehydration synthesis
- 6. the process of combining 2 or more monomers together by removing a water molecule
- 7. a chemical reaction in which the products end up with more energy than the reactants ("energy in")
- 8. the process of breaking down a polymer by inserting a water molecule
- 12. monomer of carbohydrate (glucose is an example)
- 13. CHONP; DNA, RNA, and ATP
- 14. acids 3 of these combine with glycerol to form triglycerides (lipid)
- 15. monomer of nucleic acid; made of 5-carbon sugar, phosphate group(s), and a nitrogenous base
- 19. the amount of energy required to trigger a chemical reaction
