Learning outcomes
|
Basic understanding of eukaryotic cell function and organization, cell division and cell signaling. Emphasis is placed on general context.
Upon completion of the course, the student will be able to: - describe the chemical composition and cellular organization - explain the fundamental processes and mechanisms essential for cell functioning - describe the structure and function of individual organelles - explain the process of cell division and cell cycle regulation - clarify the principles of intracellular signaling and intercellular communication Acquired KRAAU competences: 1.1.1. I have the knowledge and skills in the subjects I teach that allow me to plan and implement instruction effectively. 1.1.3. I understand how scientific knowledge is generated in the subjects I teach, I use reliable field-specific sources of information, and I evaluate sources of information critically. 2.3.5. I show an interest in the subjects I teach and their significance for individuals and society. 6.2.1. I respect scientific facts, meaning I distinguish information based on scientific knowledge from information that lacks this foundation.
