Study Notes
Bio Molecules
- Biomolecules are all organic and inorganic compounds present in a living tissue, such as animal or plant tissue
- Biomolecules consist of all organic and inorganic molecules inside a cell
- The study of biomolecules involves analyzing organic compounds present inside cells or living organisms
NCERT Definition
- Biomolecules: all organic compounds present in a cell or tissue
Organic Compound Types
- Carbon-carbon bonds (C-C)
- Carbon-hydrogen bonds (C-H) including any derivative
- Example: Methane (CH4) which reacts with chlorine (Cl2) to produce CH3Cl + HCl
Biomolecule Analysis
- Analysis of Biomolecules present inside the cell or living organism
- Examines which biomolecules are present inside living tissue
- Explores whether these biomolecules can be separated
Experimental Steps
- Step I: Using living tissue like fresh leaves, a system, or a piece of goat liver
- Step II: Using trichloroacetic acid
- Step III: Using a pestle mortar
