This course, Plant Biochemistry, will delve into the fascinating world of chemical processes that underpin the life and function of plants. We'll explore the intricate dance between molecules within plant cells, examining how these processes orchestrate growth, development, and interaction with the environment. A core focus will be on the biochemical pathways that power plants, like glycolysis – the breakdown of sugars for energy. We'll dissect these pathways step-by-step, understanding the enzymes involved and the crucial role they play in plant metabolism.
