Biochemistry- defined as the science of


the chemical basis of life.

2 ASPECTS OF BIOCHEMISTRY:

MOLECULAR ANATOMY- different


molecules which comprise the cell.

Ex. Carbohydrates (CHO), Proteins


(CHON), Lipids, Nucleic Acid, Enzymes,
Hormones, Vitamins, Minerals

MOLECULAR PHYSIOLOGY- dynamic IRREVERSIBLE REACTION- a reaction


part of biochemistry which includes when goes to completion.
function and metabolic activities of
REVERSIBLE REACTION- product can

react to form back the reactant.
Ex. Digestion, Absorption, Assimilation,
Utilization, Integration, Metabolic
degradation, Biotransformation CHEMICAL EQUILIBRIUM (2

Ph and BUFFERS
Rf- PRODUCTS are formed
Dissociation- a process by which a polar

compound (contains (+) and (-) ions) is
broken apart into its individual ionic Rf=Rb

IONIZATION OF WATER

(Water is considered as weak


electrolyte. It both amphoteric and
amphiprotic)

Amphoteric- can react both as an acid


and as a base

Amphiprotic- can both accept and


donate a proton or H

CONJUGATES

CONJUGATE ACID- Proton hydrogen


DONOR, formed when in COMBINES with
hydrogen

CONJUGATE BASE- Anion produced


from the DISSOCIATION of acid, REMOVAL
pf hydrogen
