What is biochemistry, and how does it differ from the feilds of genetics,biology,chemistry, and molecular biology?

The science of biochemistry is the study of the chemical processes that take place in living organisms and the structures and functions of the biomolecules that are involved in these processes. Other fields such as chemistry, biology, and genetics discuss many of the topics touched upon in biochemistry but what makes it different is that biochemstry focuses on the monomers and polymers that make up the main molecules that biochemist focus on which are lipids, carbohydrates, nucleic acids, and protiens. It is the structure and propeties of these molecules that are the main focus of biochemists and how they function in living organisms.
