Canlyniadau Dysgu

Wedi cwblhau'r modiwl dylai'r myfyrwyr fedru:

  1. Give a detailed description of cell structure, identifying the functions of each part.
  2. Identify and describe biological molecules, relating their structure to their function.
  3. Perform calculations relevant to methods used for working with cells

Disgrifiad cryno

This module will provide an overview of the structure and function of cells. Prokaryotic cells and a diverse range of eukaryotic cells are discussed. The biomolecules and organelles that are important in the structure and function of cells are described in detail. Practical and quantitative skills are developed in the context of methods for studying cell biology.

Cynnwys

The module includes a discussion of the structure of cells, highlighting the role of membranes as the organising principle. Different types of cells and the relationship between structures and functions are explored. There will be discussion of the classes of biological molecules that make up all life forms: nucleic acids, proteins, lipids and carbohydrates. The key enzymes and pathways of metabolism are introduced. Cell signalling and cell division are discussed in the context of tissue and organ formation. The theoretical concepts are reinforced through practical work.
