Biochemistry- The Basics An Atom is the basic unit of a chemical element ( smallest unit for measuring chemical & physical properties) Smallest particle of an element is an atom A Particle is a small portion of matter Matter is composed of elements___ Matter makes up everything in the universe. An Element is a pure substance that cannot be broken down into a simpler substance. ex. carbon‚ hydrogen‚ etc A molecule is a group of atoms bounded together ex O2 A chemical compound

from the simple elements and compounds on the Earth’s surface. Biochemistry asks how the remarkable properties of living organisms arise from the thousands of differ-ent lifeless biomolecules. When these molecules are iso-lated and examined individually‚ they conform to all the physical and chemical laws that describe the behavior of inanimate matter—as do all the processes occurring in living organisms. The study of biochemistry shows how the collections of inanimate molecules that consti-tute

supersubject of gun control has always generated a social and political debate concerning the availability and restriction of firearms within the United States. In American politics‚ gun control has been an intractable and one of the most controversial issues. Repeated surveys and opinion polls have found that a majority of Americans believe the constitutional right to own a gun. Simultaneously‚ a majority also endorses stricter enforcement of prevalent gun control laws. Understanding Gun Control

BIOCHEMISTRY REVSION PROTIEN Question (1): Define and distinguish primary structure‚ secondary and tertiary structures of proteins. Protein Structures: Primary structure Primary structure of protein is its unique sequence of amino acids forming its polypeptide chain. The primary structure of a protein is starting from the amino-terminal (N) end to the carboxyl-terminal (C). Secondary structure Most proteins have segments of their polypeptide chain repeatedly coiled of folded in patterns

Upon learning about Western University I became instantly interested in the personal able curriculum. By talking to a few students in both the Dental and Pharmacy schools I realized the importance of the small class sizes and more individualized teaching. With this close interaction I believe I will learn more effectively and be able to better implement what I have learned. I also largely enjoy the location of Western University due to it being close to the mountains. As an avid mountain biker I
