Biomolecules sits in Class 11 but tests the biochemical foundation. Key topics: classification of carbohydrates (mono, di, polysaccharides), protein structure (primary through quaternary), enzyme kinetics (Michaelis-Menten basics), and nucleic acid structure (DNA double helix, RNA types).
NCERT chapters to cover
- 📘Class 11 Ch 9: Biomolecules
Exam tips
- 1Glycosidic bond (carbs), peptide bond (proteins), phosphodiester bond (nucleic acids). Each has its own atoms.
- 2Enzymes are proteins (with rare exceptions like ribozymes — RNA enzymes).
- 3DNA: deoxyribose + thymine. RNA: ribose + uracil. Memorize cold.
