Justification: Biochemistry belongs to the basic training module of the Health Sciences branch of knowledge. It allows the physiotherapy student to acquire knowledge about the structure, organization and functions of living matter in molecular terms. It is divided into three main areas: structural chemistry of the components of living matter and the relationship of biological function to chemical structure; metabolism, all the chemical reactions that take place in living matter; and the chemistry of the processes and substances that store and transmit biological information.
Relationship with other subjects: Biochemistry is related to many disciplines: with organic chemistry that describes the properties of biomolecules; with biophysics that applies the properties of physics to the study of biomolecules; with research, which tries to understand pathological states in molecular terms; with nutrition that has clarified metabolism by describing dietary needs for health maintenance; with microbiology, which has shown that single-celled organisms and viruses are especially suitable for determining many metabolic pathways and regulatory mechanisms; with the physiology that investigates the vital processes at tissue and organism level; with cell biology that describes the biochemical division of work within a cell and with genetics, which describes the mechanism that gives a certain cell or organism its biochemical identity. Biochemistry is interdisciplinary, it is a basic and transversal subject. In the Physiotherapy curriculum it is related to Human Morphophysiology, Neurophysiology, General Pathology and Physiotherapy in Clinical Specialties,
Relationship with the profession: Allows the student to achieve fundamental professional skills for a good development of their profession, such as knowing and identifying the structure and function of the human body. Understand the molecular and physiological bases of cells and tissues, apply information and communication technologies and systems, and know the pathophysiological processes and their manifestations, as well as the risk factors that determine health and disease states.
