COURSE OBJECTIVES
The aim of the course is:
-the interpretation and understanding of chemical phenomena occurring in human body
-the interpretation and understanding of basic biochemical regularities in human organism
-the ability to assess the accuracy of the biochemical functioning of human body
-the educational attitudes of responsibility for the use of the biochemical knowledge at
work place
PREREQUISITES
LEARNING OUTCOMES
The student has knowledge of biology and chemistry at the
high school level
Knowledge:
-student describes the basics of homeostasis and understands
the role of positive and negative feedback
- describes the role of nucleotides in the cell
- describes primary and secondary structure of DNA and RNA,
the interactions stabilizing these structures, describes the
chromatin structure
-describes the structure of chromosomes, molecular
mechanisms of mutagenesis, knows the metabolic profiles of
individual organs
- knows the rules of inheritance of different features,
inheritance of quantitative traits
-characterizes the basic reactions of inorganic and organic
compounds in aqueous solutions
-knows different vitamins, describes the structure of amino
acids, nucleosides, monosaccharides, carboxylic acids and
their derivatives, comprising the macromolecules present in
the cells, extracellular matrix and body fluids
Skills:
- student applies the laws of physics to describe the issues of
the biology of cells, tissues and physiological processes
Social competence :
- is responsible for the continuous improvement of
knowledge and skills
