It-s alive! It-s alive! (Thanks to biochemistry, that is.)
Biochemistry is the science of the chemical processes that allow for-well-life. If it moves, breathes, eats, or sleeps, biochemistry can probably explain how. So, it stands to reason that the fundamentals of biochemistry can get a little complicated.
In Biochemistry For Dummies, you-ll explore the carbons, proteins, and cellular systems that make up the biochemical processes that create and sustain life of all kinds. Perfect for students majoring in biology, chemistry, pre-med, health-services, and other science-related fields, this book tracks a typical college-level biochemistry class. It simplifies and clarifies the subject with easy-to-follow diagrams and real-world examples. You-ll also get:
- Explorations of cell biology, carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, and other fundamental building blocks of life
- Discussions of the basic structures common to all living organisms
