Chapter 3 Biochemistry Organic Molecules- The Building Blocks of Life.
Production of materials
Origin of Life
Organic Chemistry Module 4: Organic Chemistry. All organic compounds are made with carbon Carbon has 4 electrons available for bonding in its outer energy.
Origin of Life. Universe formed 15 billion years ago (Big Bang) Galaxies formed from stars, dust and gas Earth formed 4.6 billion years ago.
Carbon
Production of materials. Ethylene (ethene) Although ethylene is a widely used raw material very little of it is found in either natural gas or crude oil.
1. 2 AIM: How do organisms build/break macromolecules? Chapter 5 – The Structure and Function of Macromolecules.
The study of biochemistry is necessary to understand Microbiology
