Sat 2:30 AM - 3:30 AM UTCJul 26, 2:30 AM - 3:30 AM UTC
We’ll explore how biological molecules like carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids are built and how they interact to sustain life. I’ll show how metabolism links simple molecules to complex cell functions through anabolic and catabolic pathways.

Sun 2:30 AM - 3:30 AM UTCJul 27, 2:30 AM - 3:30 AM UTC
This unit focuses on the unique properties of water, like cohesion, adhesion, and solvent abilities, and why they are essential for life. We’ll discuss how these properties support processes like transport in plants and temperature regulation.

We’ll look at how proteins provide structure, enable movement, and perform a wide range of functions like catalyzing reactions and transporting molecules. I’ll explain their structures, functions, and examples like enzymes, hemoglobin, antibodies, and structural proteins such as collagen and keratin.
