Comparative biochemistry
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Biochemical evolution" redirects here. For origin of life studies on the early development of biological molecules, see chemical evolution.
Comparative biochemistry or biochemical evolution is the study of differences in chemical (metabolic) processes among species . For example, the difference between carnivorous species of animals and herbivores is included in comparative biochemistry.
Comparative biochemistry is used to study evolution; it was a precursor to molecular evolution before the rise of molecular biology.
