Unit 2: Biochemistry
Standards:
BIO 4.1.1 Compare the structures and functions of the major biological molecules (carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids) as related to the survival of living organisms.
BIO 4.1.3 Explain how enzymes act as catalysts for biological reactions.
Essential Questions:
- What are organic macromolecules?
- What roles do these organic compounds play in life processes?
- How can we identify different organic molecules?
- What role do acids and bases play in life processes?
- What role does water play in life processes?
- What is a chemical reaction? How do enzymes speed-up chemical reactions?
