About

Want to learn biochemistry and cellular energetics beyond the textbook or just want to recap what you've learned? This is the right series for you! We will cover cellular respiration and photosynthesis from their roots, and we'll also go into enzyme kinetics beginning with the Michaelis-Menten equation. 🪫➡️🔋 📈

Hello! I am a very passionate eighth-grader who loves science. 🔬 So far, I am 100% certified for Biology, Chemistry, Pre-algebra, and Algebra 1, but I can't wait to finish learning my Algebra 2 and geometry! 🧬 🧮 🧪 📐 I study AP Biology, AP Chemistry, and biochemistry so I can become a doctor. 🦠 🩺 Overall, I love math, self-studying, playing soccer, and practicing the violin. ⚽️ 🎻

✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY

Please make it to the sessions, and let me know a day in advance if you cannot make it. I want to make sure you don't miss out on key information!

SESSION 1

Cellular energetics

Sat 7:00 PM - 8:15 PM UTCOct 11, 7:00 PM - 8:15 PM UTC

In this session, I want to introduce enzymes' role as catalysts in the cell. We will discuss induced fit model and enzyme specificity. We will also get into some Michaelis-Menten kinetics (don't worry if you don't know) and some inhibition.

SESSION 2

Cellular energetics

Thu 8:15 PM - 9:15 PM UTCOct 16, 8:15 PM - 9:15 PM UTC

In this session, I plan to go over the processes of photosynthesis, including the light-dependent reactions and the Calvin cycle. This includes how plants convert light energy into high-energy molecules and then metabolize carbon dioxide to make sugars.

SESSION 4

Cellular energetics

Mon 2:00 PM - 3:15 PM UTCOct 20, 2:00 PM - 3:15 PM UTC

In this session, I plan to go over the enzymes and intermediates in cellular respiration. We will individually cover glycolysis, TCA cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation. We may also discuss several important applications of our knowledge.
