After completing the quiz you should work on the handouts for Biochemical Molecules: Carbohydrates, Lipids, Proteins and Nucleic Acids. This is a big part of the class and it is sad we aren't in class to complete the lab activities for this unit. I will be posting some quick quizzes on this topic.Week of April 18th through April 30thTake Biochemistry Quiz on Castle Learning.

You can use the Chapter 3 Study Guide plus all worksheets listed on this site.Next Topic is Bioenergetics - This is the studyof energy conversions in living things. You will cover the topics of Photosynthesis and Cellular Respiration. It involves the processes for the conversion of energy from Solar energy to Chemical energy to the final production ATP, the energy currency of life. Unfortunately, this is another big topic for lab exercises that we won't be able to do.1. Life Processes2. Properties of Water3.
