Module 5: coli dna polymerase, coli dna polymerase iii. Biochemistry origins to ancient times and making wine (egyptians) Biochemistry: a set of tools, or technical skills, that lend themselves to many diverse scientific fields, most of which are related to the study of biomedical research ie. diseases, biomarkers, biotechnology. However it does not stop there as it is precipice of biology and chemistry, making biochemistry an invaluable tool agriculture and environmental science. The primordial universe (billions of yrs ago) was predominated by h and he chemical elements which is not enough to create any life. The heavier compounds such as c(most important), h(2nd important), n, o(2nd important), p and s were created in the second generation. Humans are mainly composed of hydrogen atoms(60%) followed closely by oxygen and carbon and these 3 play big role in organic chemistry. Earth has a lot of aluminum and silicon which not found in the human body.
