Chemisty+of+life

This topic introduces the elements found in living things and examines how these are combined to produce the complex variety of living things that surround us. Water is identified as a key biological molecule and its unusual properties are examined with reference to their biological significance. Each of the key groups f biological molecules; carbohydrates, lipids, proteins and nucleic acids, are then studies in more detail. Respiration and photosynthesis, two key biochemical processes, are then examined.
