The chemistry of biology; the application of the tools and concepts of chemistry to living systems Biochemists study the structures and physical properties of biological molecules
the chemistry of those compounds that occur in living organisms, and the processes that occur in their metabolism and catabolism
the organic chemistry of compounds and processes occuring in organisms; the effort to understand biology within the context of chemistry
Biochemistry is the study of the chemical processes that happen in living things
is the study of the structure and function of organic molecules, proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, and specialized chemical compounds
A science that studies the chemistry of living organisms, including human beings
The biochemistry of a living thing is the chemical processes that happen in it or are involved in it. the scientific study of the chemistry of living things. Field of science concerned with chemical substances and processes that occur in plants, animals, and microorganisms. It involves the quantitative determination and structural analysis of the organic compounds that make up cells (proteins, carbohydrates, and lipids) and of those that play key roles in chemical reactions vital to life (e.g., nucleic acids, vitamins, and hormones). Biochemists study cells' many complex and interrelated chemical changes. Examples include the chemical reactions by which proteins and all their precursors are synthesized, food is converted to energy (see metabolism), hereditary characteristics are transmitted (see heredity), energy is stored and released, and all biological chemical reactions are catalyzed (see catalysis, enzyme). Biochemistry straddles the biological and physical sciences and uses many techniques common in medicine and physiology as well as those of organic, analytical, and physical chemistry
