Dersin Amacı: To teach the basic concepts of biology, asking scientific questions, the scientific method, the general experimental design and scientific reporting.
To make the students perceive life, fundamental features of organisms and basic biological mechanisms.
To teach the basic molecular aspects of biology, which are critical to understand cell biology, bioinformatics and genetics.
To make students understand how populations evolve and why evolution is the core theme of biology.
Dersin İçeriği: A general introduction to biology, biological experimenting, reporting, molecules of life, organization of the cell, cell membrane, enzymes, ATP production, chromosomes and cell division, genetics, molecular genetics, recombinant DNA technology, genetic diseases, biotechnology and evolution.
Dersin Öğrenme Çıktıları (ÖÇ):
  • 1- Describe common properties shared by all forms of life.
  • 2- Explain why evolution is the core theme of biology.
  • 3- Introduce the macromolecules building up cells and understand the biological organization of a cell.
  • 4- Understand the perpetuation of life: cell division and reproduction.
  • 5- Describe the patterns of inheritance.
  • 6- Explain how DNA serves as the basis of heredity, how it replicates, and how it controls the cell.
  • 7- The Chromosomal Basis of Inheritance, Sex Chromosomes, and Sex-Linked Genes
  • 8- Methods and applications of gene cloning, DNA profiling, genetically modified organisms and genomics.
  • 9- Understand how populations evolve.
  • 10- Understand the primate diversity and hominin evolution.
Dersin Öğrenme Yöntem ve Teknikleri PowerPoint presentations including important images and daily examples about the subject, which are also shared with the students through the BlackBoard platform. Explaining the concepts on the board. (students are allowed to take photos). Conversation with the students during the lecture. Watching mechanistic/explanatory videos during lectures and discussing with students. Suggesting videos to watch later.
