In your cells, what is the product of the structure you
listed in ācā (ribosomes) above?
proteins
is the chemistry of living organism. If its
alive, biochemists will study it.
BIOCHEM
takes place at the molecular level of
organisms.
BIOCHEMISTRY
(Water 70%, Inorganic salts 5%) )[contains elements
other than C, H, O, N, S, & P]
BIOINORGANIC
(Proteins 15%, lipids 8%, carbohydrates 2%, nucleic
acid 2%)
BIOORGANIC
all living things are made up OF
CELL
2 TYPES OF CELL
EUKARYOTIC AND PROKARYOTIC
ability to dissolve a wide
range of inorganic and organic substances
EXCELLENT BIOLOGICAL SOLVENT
act as either acid or base
- Amphoteric substance
large molecule to smaller molecules
Amphoteric substance
