This textbook has been designed to meet the needs of B.Sc. Fifth Semester students of Zoology for Patna University and other Universities in Bihar under the recommended National Education Policy 2020.It comprehensively covers the theoretical and practical aspect of the papers, namely, 'MJC 8: Biochemistry' and 'MJC 9: Genetics'.

The theory section of MJC 8: Biochemistry discusses the importance and scope of biochemistry. This book will help the students to learn the structure, classification and importance of carbohydrates, amino acids, proteins, lipids and Enzymes.

MJC 9: Genetics introduces the life and contributions of Mendel and explains the laws of dominance, segregation, and independent assortment. It also covers important topics such as linkage, crossing over, sex-linked inheritance and mutations.

The book includes relevant experiments to support conceptual understanding and

teach experimental techniques. More than 250 well-labelled diagrams to enhance comprehension and understanding of the concepts. Chapter-end exercises, comprising over 500 questions, are included to help students review and solidify their knowledge. Additionally, boxed inserts throughout the text offer supplementary information on complex terms and topics, enriching the reader's learning experience.
