Trusted teacher: In the CIE (Cambridge International) curriculum, Biochemistry is primarily covered in Biology and partially in Chemistry at both IGCSE and AS/A Level. It focuses on the chemical processes and molecules essential for life. Here's a detailed overview: IGCSE Biology (0610/0970) Biochemistry at the IGCSE level introduces students to basic biological molecules and processes: 1. Biological Molecules - Carbohydrates: - Monosaccharides (e.g., glucose), disaccharides (e.g., sucrose), and polysaccharides (e.g., starch, glycogen). - Role in energy storage and release. - Proteins: - Made up of amino acids. - Functions: enzymes, structural components (e.g., keratin), and hormones. - Lipids: - Fats and oils: composed of fatty acids and glycerol. - Role in energy storage, insulation, and cell membranes. 2. Enzymes - Biological catalysts that speed up reactions. - Factors affecting enzyme activity: temperature, pH, and substrate concentration. 3. Photosynthesis - Biochemical process in plants to produce glucose using light energy, carbon dioxide, and water. - Equation: 6CO2 + 6H2O → C6H12O6 + 6O2. 4. Respiration - Aerobic respiration: Glucose + Oxygen → Carbon dioxide + Water + Energy (ATP). - Anaerobic respiration in humans: Glucose → Lactic acid + Energy. 5. DNA and Protein Synthesis (Basic level) - DNA as the molecule of inheritance. - Role of DNA in carrying genetic information. --- CIE AS and A Level Biology (9700) At the AS/A Level, biochemistry is studied in depth. Key areas include: 1. Biological Molecules - Carbohydrates: Structure and function of monosaccharides, disaccharides (e.g., maltose), and polysaccharides (e.g., starch, glycogen, cellulose). - Lipids: Triglycerides, phospholipids, and cholesterol. Role in membranes and energy storage. - Proteins: - Levels of structure: primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary. - Role of proteins in enzymes, antibodies, and transport (e.g., hemoglobin). - Nucleic Acids: - Structure of DNA and RNA. - Role of nucleic acids in protein synthesis. 2. Enzymes - Enzyme structure and mode of action (lock-and-key, induced fit). - Enzyme kinetics and factors affecting enzyme activity. - Competitive and non-competitive inhibitors. 3. Cellular Respiration - Glycolysis, Krebs cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation. - ATP production and its importance as an energy currency. 4. Photosynthesis - Light-dependent and light-independent (Calvin cycle) reactions. - Factors affecting photosynthesis. 5. Molecular Biology - DNA replication, transcription, and translation. - Role of mRNA, tRNA, and ribosomes in protein synthesis. 6. Biochemical Processes in Cells - Role of ATP in metabolism. - Metabolic pathways and enzyme regulation. --- CIE AS and A Level Chemistry (9701) While biochemistry is primarily a biology topic, it also features in chemistry at A Level: 1. Amino Acids and Proteins - Structure of amino acids and peptide bonds. - Protein hydrolysis and analysis. 2. Carbohydrates - Structure of glucose and its isomers. - Reactions of carbohydrates (e.g., oxidation). 3. Lipids - Structure of triglycerides, fatty acids, and phospholipids. - Saponification and ester formation. 4. Biochemical Techniques - Chromatography for separating amino acids and sugars. - Use of enzymes as biological catalysts in industrial processes. --- Summary - At the IGCSE level, biochemistry focuses on basic biomolecules (carbohydrates, proteins, lipids), enzymes, photosynthesis, and respiration. - At the AS/A Level, biochemistry delves deeper into molecular biology, enzyme kinetics, ATP production, protein synthesis, and metabolism.

Samayah - New York, NY, United StatesRecently active£72
£72Personalized / Intuitive / Tarot Reading and Courses
Trusted teacher: I have worked all over the world in many professional settings and industries as a reader. I work in broadcast news, media, fashion, film, consulting, and counseling backgrounds - and have had the humbling experience and privilege of being able to help guide public and respected individuals of all kinds. I am not only a birthed, Natural Psychic medium, clairvoyant, and clairsentience reader I am also able to work in the fields of science, psychology, and philosophy. As I view the logical and spiritual realms are interconnected. So any questions regarding logical, scientific, philosophical, and historical backing are greatly welcomed in this class. I will teach you to not only be a Professional, Empowered, and Personally Enlightened Tarot Reader but also access and help you find a way to completely rely and trust your own Intuition as well as connect with your own Spirit Guides, Angels, and Ancestors as a tool (if you see it fit to be a part of your life and want for yourself). What people do not know about Psychics, Tarot Readers: Each Reader is different. All possess a different style, shuffle, and "card language" that is all their own. This is the power of the divine being able to respect your identity as an individual. And this class will help you to see that. I will teach you the following: 1. symbol (and what they can all mean to your own individual reading style, energy, and identity when you conduct a reading for your own customers) 2. number (numerology, angel numbers, etc) 3. clarification decks and supplementary cards (tarot decks and readings are not all the same. So it's important to understand how to use clarification decks - a 2nd tarot deck - or oracle cards to supplement the reading. 4. history of tarot and misconceptions in religion and spirituality. This will talk about how it relates in the modern world and society. Just because one accesses the esoteric realm or Guides, Angels, and Spirit world to help them does not mean one cannot be spiritual, belief in God, have a normal life, and can associate in circles where Tarot may not be easily talked about but can work in all personalized settings. 5. confidence in your Tarot Reading abilities, identity, and spiritual strength of intuition.
