Across
- 3. Unit of heat, the amount required to raise the temperature of 1 cubic centimeter of water by 1 degree Celcius
- 5. The law stating that the amount of entropy increases in every energy transformation
- 7. Increases rate of a reaction, isn't changed, and doesn't change the final product
- 8. The degree of disorganization of a system's total energy
- 10. Molecule loses electrons
- 11. The reactant molecule, it fits into active sites
- 14. A metal like Ca, Mg, or Zn. Attachment causes a conformational change in the protein to allow for substrate combination
- 16. Most end in "ase," named by the activity they perform
- 17. The final product inhibits an earlier step by changing the active site
- 19. When substrate and enzyme concentrations reach a plateau
- 20. Type of reaction that releases energy
Down
- 1. Law stating that energy can be transformed, but it can't be created nor destroyed (aka Law of Conservation of Energy)
- 2. Molecule gains electrons
- 4. The amount of energy needed for a reaction
- 6. The universal energy carrier
- 9. The law stating that reactions are driven from high to low concentrations
- 12. Type of reaction that requires an input of energy
- 13. Organic molecules needed for the function of some enzymes
- 15. The molecule that donates electrons
- 18. The molecule that accepts electrons
