UNIT II
Bio-Energetic & Biological Interaction: Laws of Thermodynamics .Concepts of heat of reaction, enthalpy, and entropy. Concept of chemical bonding, Electron displacements, Dipole-dipole interactions, hydrogen bond, Vander-Waal’s forces, hydrophobic and hydrophilic Interactions, Acid-base equilibria, Soaps and detergents.
UNIT III
Bio-molecules: Carbohydrates, Lipids, Proteins, Vitamins and nucleic acids-Types, structure and function.
UNIT IV
Cell biology: Prokaryotic and eukaryotic cell-structure and organelle functions. Functions of sub-organells of cell i.e., Nucleus, Endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, Peroxisomes and mitochondria. Structure of Cell membrane types and regulation of transport.
UNIT V
Metabolism: Carbohydrate, Lipids, amino acids and nucleotides turn over and its regulation, Metabolic disorders. Glycolysis, TCA cycle, Urea cycle, Gluconeogenesis, Glyoxalate cycle and pentose phosphate pathway.
UNIT VI
