2 aspects of BIOCHEMISTRY:
MOLECULAR ANATOMY MOLECULAR PHYSIOLOGY
Digestion Assimilation
Enzymes Minerals
Hormones Vitamins
Examples of biomolecules:
Digestion Physical – mechanical breakdown Chemical – further breakdown with the aid of enzymes b. Absorption – passage of end products of digestion from the small intestine into the blood c. Assimilation – selective absorption d. Utilization -cell is the important unit of life. Hence a large number of chemical reactions in the cell utilize the nutrients absorbed to produce materials needed for our existence e. Integration - refers to the overlap of many functions of the systems of the human body, as well as its accompanied form. f. 1. Metabolic degradation – conversion of a substance into an active metabolite f. 2. Biotransformation – conversion of a substance to another for biosynthesis g. Excretion
A. Carbohydrates (CHO) b. Proteins (CHON) c. Lipids d. Nucleic acid e. Enzymes f. Hormones g. Vitamins h. Minerals
