Study Notes
Biochemistry Overview
- Biophysics is NOT a field of biochemistry.
Focus of Biochemistry
- The main focus of biochemistry is the study of the chemical processes and transformations that occur within living organisms.
Contribution to Understanding Tissues and Organs
- Biochemistry contributes to the understanding of tissues and organs by explaining how the biochemical processes and reactions occur within them.
Relationship with Molecular Biology
- Biochemistry and molecular biology are closely related, as they both study the molecular structure and function of biological molecules, but biochemistry focuses more on the chemical processes and reactions.
Successes of Biochemistry
- Biochemistry has become successful at explaining the mechanisms of metabolism, DNA replication, and other cellular processes at the molecular level.
