UP Board Class 11 Biology – Biomolecules

The chapter “Biomolecules” in UP Board Class 11 Biology focuses on the chemical compounds that are essential for life. It explains how carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, nucleic acids, and enzymes play vital roles in the structure and functioning of cells.



Students learn about the classification, structure, and functions of each biomolecule. Carbohydrates provide energy and structural support, proteins serve as enzymes and structural components, lipids act as energy storage and membrane components, and nucleic acids store and transmit genetic information. The chapter also introduces enzymes, their specificity, and factors affecting enzyme activity.

Understanding biomolecules is fundamental for studying metabolism, cell biology, physiology, and genetics. This chapter helps students develop a strong foundation in molecular biology and biochemistry, which is essential for higher studies and competitive exams like NEET, CUET, and UP Board.
