Learning outcomes
|
The course provides a fundamental knowledge of cell biology as well as another point of view to molecular biology, biochemistry and physiology of the cells from bacteria to multicellular eukaryotes, animals as well as plants
Student get complete information about processes passing off on the level of the cell with emphasis on the plant cell function.
|
|
Prerequisites
|
Basic common knowledge of biochemistry, cell biology, molecular biology and genetics. Eventuually, simultaneously study of biochemistry and molecular biology is recommended.

Assessment methods and criteria
|
Combined exam, Seminar work
Terms for credit acquirement are to elaborate essay ( 1 page A4), the topic chosen in agreement with lecturers, short presentation ( 10 to 15 minutes) on the selected topic and the active participation on the workshop (seminar- 1 hour per week) and practical exercises (3 times 2 hours). Exam is combined. To pass exam successfully requires to achieve at least 50% of points in the test and to answer the supplemental questions in oral part of the exam.
