Biochemistry is the branch of science that studies the chemical processes and substances that occur within living organisms. It combines principles of both biology and chemistry to understand how molecules interact and function in biological systems. Biochemists study various aspects of life processes, including metabolism, molecular biology, genetics, and cell biology, in order to gain insights into the chemical basis of life and develop knowledge that can be applied to fields such as medicine, agriculture, and biotechnology.
Biochemistry is the branch of science that explores the chemical processes within and related to living organisms. It combines principles of biology and chemistry to study the structure, composition, and function of biological molecules, such as proteins, nucleic acids, carbohydrates, and lipids. Biochemists focus on understanding the cellular and molecular mechanisms that underlie biological processes, including metabolism, enzyme function, genetics, and signaling pathways. They apply these principles to diverse fields such as medicine, agriculture, biotechnology, and pharmaceutical development.
