Lecture 15: The Chemistry of Life
What is the basic chemistry of living organisms?
We introduce the requirements for metabolism (raw
materials and energy), the ATP/ADP energy cycle in cells, auto- and
heterotrophs, photosynthesis and chemosynthesis, and the role played by
liquid water. The goal of today's lecture is to seek insights into the
basic requirements for life from a consideration of the needs of the
cells' chemistry. Recorded live on 2009 Oct 14 in Room 1005 Smith
Laboratory on the Columbus campus of The Ohio State University.
