606-205 Cell Biology I. Cells and Organelles.

Note:

1. (A joint Botany/Zoology/Anatomy and Cell Biology subject)
2. Credit cannot be granted for both 606-205 and 606-215.
3. Experiments involving the use of animals are an essential part of this subject: exemption is not possible.

Credit points: 10.0

Coordinator: Prof Jeremy Pickett-Heaps (Botany) (Chief Co-ordinator), Prof Graeme Campbell (Zoology), Dr Brian Key (Anatomy and Cell Biology)

Prerequisite: Biology 600-141 and 600-142 (1995: 600-101) Chemistry 610-121/122, 141/142 or 161/162

Contact: 26 lectures (two 1-hour lectures per week) and 18 hours practical work (times to be arranged).

Timetable: First semester

Objectives:

This subject can be taken by itself, but it is designed to be the first of a two-semester sequence with 606-206. It has as its objectives that students should gain an understanding of:

• different types of cells, their origin and diversity across the protistan, fungal, plant and animal kingdoms;
• the major components of cells and their functions;
• the interrelationship between organelles in plant and animal cells;
• cell membranes and cell surfaces;
• the behaviour of live cells.

Students taking the practical component should gain:

• experience in how biologists design experiments and collect data and how data are used in the formulation of theories;
• skills in observation, manipulation and analysis;
• re-inforcement of some of the phenomena discussed in the lectures;

Content:

The cell as an integrated functional unit; structure and function of cell components and organelles; membrane structure and function; cellular diversity.

Assessment:

A 3-hour written examination which will account for 85% of the final grade; up to 3,000 words of practical assignments which will account for 15% of the final grade.
