Biology and Food

Science > Biology > Introduction to Biology > Biology and food List of Sub-Topics: Biology and food are intricately linked disciplines that explore the relationship between living organisms and the nutrients they consume for growth, development, and energy. Here are some key aspects of how biology relates to food: Nutrition and Metabolism: Nutrition and metabolism […]

Science > Chemistry > Biomolecules > Proteins and Their Classification The name protein (proteios Greek = pre-eminent or first) was first suggested, in 1838, by a Swedish chemist Berzelius to a Dutch chemist Mulder, who referred it to the complex organic nitrogenous substances found in the cells of the living beings. They are naturally occurring nitrogenous polymers of different alpha-amino […]

No Comments on Disaccharides and Polysaccharides

Science > Chemistry > Biomolecules > Disaccharides and Polysaccharides In the last article, we have studied monosaccharides. In this article, we shall study disaccharides and polysaccharides. Disaccharides: Di-saccharides on hydrolysis give two molecules of monosaccharide. They on hydrolysis with dilute acids or enzymes yield two molecules of either the same or different monosaccharides. e.g. Cane sugar (Sucrose) […]

Glucose and Fructose

Science > Chemistry > Biomolecules > Glucose and Fructose In the last article, we have seen what are carbohydrates and how are they classified. Based on hydrolysis behaviour the carbohydrates are classified into three types. a) Mono-Saccharides b) Oligo-Saccharides and c) Poly-Saccharides. In this article, we shall study monosaccharides in detail particularly glucose and fructose. […]

Carbohydrates

Science > Chemistry > Biomolecules > Introduction to Carbohydrates All those simple or complex organic and inorganic substances found in different living forms are collectively called as biomolecules. Biomolecules can be grouped into two types micro and macromolecules. The micro molecules have moderate to low molecular mass. e.g. sugars, amino acids, and their derivatives, vitamins, […]

No Comments on Biofertilizers and BioControl Agents

Biology > Microbes in Human Welfare > Biofertilizers and BioControl Agents In this article, we shall study the use of microbes as biocontrol agents and biofertilizers. Microbes as Biocontrol Agents: Chemical insecticides and pesticides are toxic and extremely harmful, to human beings and animals. These chemicals pollute the environment (soil, groundwater), fruits, vegetables, and crop […]
