Across
- 3. The heat content of a system at constant pressure
- 4. Work The pumping of substances across membranes against the direction of spontaneous movement
- 10. Kinetic energy associated with the random movement of atoms or molecules
- 14. Energy Energy can be associated with the relative motion of objects
- 15. Reaction "Energy Outward" Proceeds with a net release of free energy
- 16. Pathway Begins with a specific molecule, which is then altered in a series of defined steps, resulting in a certain product.
- 18. All of the chemical reactions that occur within an organism
- 21. The study of how energy flows through living organisms
Down
- 1. Energy The potential energy available for release in a chemical reaction
- 2. Energy Energy that matter possesses because of its location or structure
- 5. A process that can occur without an input of energy
- 6. Pathways (build) Consume energy to build complicated molecules from simpler ones; they are sometimes biosynthetic pathways
- 7. Work The pushing of endergonic reactions that would not occur spontaneously, such as the synthesis of polymers from monomers
- 8. The study of the energy transformations that occur in a collection of matter
- 9. Reaction "Energy Inward" One that absorbs free energy from it's surroundings
- 11. Work Such as the beating of cilia, the contraction of muscle cells, and the movement of chromosomes during cellular reproduction
- 12. Law of Thermodynamics Every energy transfer or transformation increases the entropy of the universe
- 13. Pathways (breakdown) Release energy by breaking down complex molecules to simpler compounds
- 17. A measure of disorder or randomness
- 19. Energy The portion of a system's energy that can perform work when temperature and pressure are uniform throughout the system, as in a living cell
- 20. Law of Thermodynamics The energy of the universe is constant: Energy can be transferred, but it cannot be created or destroyed
