Across
- 3. The enzyme that removes a phosphate group from GTP turning it back into GDP
- 5. The energy of motion
- 6. The breakdown of molecules into simpler units is what type of process?
- 10. The pigment present in green plants that is required for photosynthesis
- 12. Transverse channels in plant cells that allow for the facilitation of movement of molecules and allow for communication between cells
- 14. The region of an enzyme that binds the substrate and allows for the chemical reaction to occur
- 15. Step of the signaling pathway that is associated with a change, examples include, movement, cell division, or secretion
- 16. The biochemical reaction that is associated with an absorption of energy, the products consist of a greater level of energy compared to the reactants
Down
- 1. The step that allows for a protein kinase receptor to become activated
- 2. The minimum amount of energy needed for a chemical reaction to occur
- 4. Type of inhibitor that will bind to the allosteric site and change the shape of the active site so that the substrate will be unable to bind
- 7. Type of cell signaling where the cell signals to itself and a ligand binds to the receptors on its own surface
- 8. Speed up reactions by lowering the activation energy
- 9. The loss of electrons in molecules during a chemical reaction
- 10. Messenger that activates Protein Kinase A which will then activate transcription factors, allowing genes to become either on or off
- 11. Organic compounds that are used by enzymes to allow for catalytic activity to occur, examples include NAD, Biotin, and ATP
- 13. When electrons jump from ground state to excited state do they absorb or release energy?
