Big Ideas Technological applications that affect biological processes and cellular functions are used in the food, pharmaceutical, and medical industries.

Biological molecules and their chemical properties affect cellular processes and biochemical reactions. Big Ideas

Biochemical compounds play important structural and functional roles in cells of all living organisms

chemical structures, functions, B2. Investigate the chemical structures, functions, chemical properties biological molecules and chemical properties of biological molecules cellular involved in some common cellular processesbiochemical processes and biochemical reactions reactions; chemical structures, functions, B2. Investigate the chemical structures, functions, chemical properties biological molecules and chemical properties of biological molecules cellular involved in some common cellular processesbiochemical processes and biochemical reactions reactions; normal cellular function B3. Demonstrate an understanding of the structures and functions of biological molecules, and the biochemical reactions required to maintain normal cellular function. technological applications enzymesindustrial processes cellular biology B1. Analyse technological applications of enzymes in some industrial processes, and evaluate technological advances in the field of cellular biology;

Week 1: From Bread to Sugar

advances in cellular biology B1.2 evaluate, on the basis of research, some advances in cellular biology and related technological applications structure B3.2 Describe the structure of important biochemical compounds, including carbohydrates, proteins proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids, and explain their function within cells Blood Typing

note a potential common misconception: students may get confused with the issue of whether your blood type refers to the antigens or the antibodies you carry – so type A could be thought of as a person that has anti-A antibodies versus anti-A antigens, also which are on the blood cell and which are in the plasma: the antigens or the antibodies? Antibodies are normally not static, rather moving, traveling, versus antigens that are generally static, attached. Misconceptions Blood Typing
