Across
  1. 5. the ability of a biological system to integrate. Both catabolic and anabolic pathways to improve cell efficiency
  2. 8. A site on an enzyme where substrates can be positioned for reaction.
  3. 12. Inhibits enzyme activity via a molecule that "mimics" the enzymes normal substrate. Binding to the active site.
  4. 13. Big change in conditions. Native/natural shape of enzyme is changed
  5. 14. Results in the breakdown of cell molecules and structures. Releases energy that can be used as ATP.
  6. 15. Support the work of enzymes.
  7. 16. Metabolic money, energy currency for body, three part molecule. Temporarily stores and releases energy.
Down
  1. 1. Influenced by the cells environment. Temperature, PH, salt concentrate.
  2. 2. a molecule binds to a site on the enzyme, not the active site.
  3. 3. Consists of a series of reactions that converts glucose (monosaccharide) to CO2 by using oxygen and allows the cell make significant amounts of ATP.
  4. 4. Biological catalysts that speed up chemical reactions.
  5. 6. A highly toxic, noncompetitive inhibitor that binds to the enzyme cytochrome oxidase, a key component of the electron transport chain.
  6. 7. Any process that results in synthesis of cell molecules and structures. Requires the input of ATP to occur.
  7. 9. An enzyme presents a very unique/specific active site that matches only 1 particular substrate
  8. 10. Consists of a series of anaerobic reactions (no oxygen required) that converts glucose (monosaccharide) to: Yeast, Bacteria, Humans.
  9. 11. Considers all the anabolic and catabolic reactions together.
