Across
- 2. Potential energy available for release in a chemical reaction
- 7. Reaction where energy is released from ATP when a terminal phosphate bond is broken
- 8. A reactant that binds with an enzyme's active site
- 10. The initial energy needed to start a chemical reaction; often supplied as heat
- 13. The area on an enzyme where a substrate binds
- 14. Inhibitors that bind to the active site of an enzyme; compete with the substrate
- 17. Inhibitors that bind to other parts of an enzyme (not the active site); causes the enzyme to change shape; makes the active site of the enzyme less effective
- 18. Energy that matter possesses because of its location/structure
- 19. A chemical agent that speeds up a reaction without being consumed by it
Down
- 1. Extracts energy stored in sugars and other fuels
- 3. Organic cofactors
- 4. Capacity to cause change; exists in various forms, some of which can perform work; can be converted from one form to another
- 5. Kinetic energy associated with the random movement of atoms and molecules
- 6. Reactions that absorb free energy from its surroundings and are nonspontaneous
- 9. Energy associated with random movement
- 11. Reactions that proceed with the net release of free energy and are spontanous
- 12. Energy that can do work when temperature and pressure are uniform (like in living cells)
- 15. Totality of an organism's chemical reactions; transforms matter and energy; subject to the laws of thermodynamics
- 16. Nonprotein enzyme helpers; ex ions, metals
