Everyone knows that energy is essential for sustaining life. How can you define energy in life? Have ever thought about ways of how carbohydrates like glucose from your diet can be used for extracting energy? A scientific field that focuses on energy production and flow though living cells and organisms is called bioenergetics. Energy metabolism covers various biochemical ways of energy transformation and regulatory mechanisms of over thousands chemical reactions. Without fine control of those metabolic processes, cells and organisms cannot maintain activities linked to life.

TOP REVIEWS FROM BIOCHEMICAL PRINCIPLES OF ENERGY METABOLISM
This course covers the whole metabolism. Last week is awesome. As being a student of biochemistry I found this course very helpful.
Very engaging and at the same time simple to understand. Thanks, professors of Kaist for the creation of this course!
Great course for understanding the biochemical reactions taking place in human cells that keep a person alive. Dr. Kim did a great job of teaching the course.
osm course for brief understanding and the faculty also is teaching in different and understandable manner am very satisfied with the work of faculty and it is best area for gaining knowledge.
