Objectives of Programme's Learning Outcomes
Learning Outcomes of UE
After this teaching, the students will control the essential concepts of biochemistry, cellular biology, genetics and evolution in order to approach without difficulties the specialized courses of the following years. The basic techniques of molecular biology will be also taught.
UE Content: description and pedagogical relevance
Introduction to biochemistry (sugars, lipids, terpenes, polypeptides, nucleic acids); DNA replication; The transcription; The translation; Viruses; The prokaryotic cell (wall); Mitosis and meiosis of eukaryotic cells; Mendel and the concept of gene; The chromosomal bases of heredity; Application of Mendel's laws to human populations; The principle of evolution; Sexual population genetics (Hardy & Weinberg's theorem, genetic drift, selection models); speciation; Biotechnology (manipulation of DNA and proteins); Regulation of gene expression; Cytology of Eukaryotes (cytoplasmic membrane, cytoskeleton, mitochondria, chloroplasts, nucleus, peroxisomes, lysosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, extracellular matrix).
