Across
  1. 5. – Viral reproduction cycle where the virus immediately makes copies and bursts the host cell.
  2. 8. – Viral cycle where the virus inserts its DNA into the host’s DNA and stays dormant before activating.
  3. 9. – The idea that the membrane is flexible (“fluid”) and made of many parts (“mosaic”).
  4. 13. – The part of an enzyme where the substrate fits and the reaction happens.
  5. 15. – The flexible boundary that controls what enters and leaves the cell.
Down
  1. 1. – The living cell that a virus invades to reproduce.
  2. 2. – A protein that speeds up chemical reactions by lowering activation energy.
  3. 3. – Proteins with carbohydrate chains attached; help with cell recognition.
  4. 4. – Lipids with carbohydrate chains attached; play a role in cell communication.
  5. 6. – A substance that speeds up a chemical reaction without being used up.
  6. 7. – A non-living particle made of DNA or RNA surrounded by a protein coat that infects living cells.
  7. 10. – When an enzyme loses its shape (due to heat or pH), and can’t work properly.
  8. 11. – The molecule that an enzyme acts on.
  9. 12. – The protein shell of a virus.
  10. 14. – Molecules scattered within the membrane that provide stability and flexibility.
