Animal Biology and Plant Biology
A.Y. 2018/2019
Learning objectives
The study of the biology represents a fundamental aspect for the application in the pharmacological, medical and biotechnology fields. The knowledge of the basic principles of the animal and plant biology is a essential requirement for being able to undertake interdisciplinary scientific studies at best. The Objectives of the course are to teach the basic knowledges of the morphological and functional aspects of the animal and plant cells to permit the understanding of the more complex notions which will be analysed in the more advanced courses of this School.
