Across
- 3. when an enzyme is changed in shape due to a change in temperature or pH
- 7. when the enzyme and the substrate bind to change from substrate to product
- 9. the elements or compounds that enter into a chemical reaction
- 12. the elements or compounds that are made by a chemical reaction
- 13. the substance that the enzyme helps to react. They are substrate specific and can be reused.
- 14. the energy needed by the reactants in order to start a reaction. It is required to break bonds in the reactant molecules.
Down
- 1. a type of protein that helps speed up chemical reactions. They are specific for just one reaction.
- 2. when an enzyme and substrate create a reaction that breaks the substrate into multiple products.
- 4. when an enzyme and substrate create a reaction that makes one single product.
- 5. is a process that changes one set of molecules into a new set of substances. It occurs when chemical bonds between atoms are broken or formed.
- 6. when an enzyme changes shape
- 8. a chemical or biological molecule that regulates chemical reactions by slowing down or blocking them from happening
- 10. inhibitors a substance that blocks the active site, preventing the enzyme from binding to its substrate
- 11. the region of an enzyme to which the substrate binds. (the pocket)
