Human Biochemistry
The aim of this option is to give students an understanding of the chemistry of important molecules found in the human body and the need for a balanced and healthy diet. Although the role these molecules play in the body should be appreciated, the emphasis is placed on their chemistry, and students who have not followed a course in biology will not be at a disadvantage. Students will not be required to memorize complex structures but will be expected to recognize functional groups and types of bonding within molecules. Structures of some important biological molecules are given in the data booklet.
