Last update: doc. RNDr. PhDr. Ing. Jana Jaklová Dytrtová, Ph.D. (27.10.2023)
The subject deals with the composition and structure of organisms with an emphasis on eukaryotic organisms - humans, presents the basic topics of cell biology (cell signaling, cell division), pays special attention to the transport mechanisms of the cell membrane and membrane potential, briefly biochemical reactions in the cell and maps the basics of general genetics, evolutionary theories, epigenetics, and population genetics.
Aim of the course
Last update: doc. RNDr. PhDr. Ing. Jana Jaklová Dytrtová, Ph.D. (27.10.2023)

The goal of this course is that after completing it, students will be able to

1) describe the cell, including its organelles and their functions, explain the difference between eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells

2) describe the structure of DNA, RNA (including its functional types), explain the functions of nucleic acids and their importance for heredity.

3) List and explain reproduction variants, describe the principles of heredity, evolution and the basics of population genetics

4) Describe and explain the laws of chemical enzyme-catalyzed reactions in the cell

5) Describe, explain and calculate the contributions of individual ions to the membrane potential

6) Describe the principle of reactivity of neuronal and muscle tissue

7) To think about the integration of man, as a living organism, into the environment of this planet and to understand his influence on basic elemental and energy flows

Course completion requirements
Last update: doc. RNDr. PhDr. Ing. Jana Jaklová Dytrtová, Ph.D. (27.10.2023)

Credit Requirements:

passing the test at 75%

Expected outcomes from the subject of biology:

knowledge: cell biology, including functions of individual organelles, prokaryote-eukaryote comparison membrane transport, membrane potential evolution of organisms foundations of heredity, population genetics Cell division and differentiation Cell signaling

skills: Calculation of the membrane potential

Conditions for recognition of credits:

The exam can only be recognized if:

1) the date of its composition is no older than 3 years,

2) the final grade is not worse than 2 (for the ZK passed at FTVS) or 1 (for the ZK passed at a faculty other than FTVS)

3) subject syllabi do not differ by more than 10%

4) the applicant submits a complete application for recognition of the ZK, including a list of study obligations confirmed by the study department and, for applicants from other faculties, also by the teacher (with whom the exam was taken) a confirmed course syllabus, including a valid contact for the teacher.

5) the complete application is delivered to the secretariat of the Department of Biomedical Foundations in Kinanthropology to Mrs. Kopřivová (E324, 3rd floor) by October 31 of each given year

 

Students with specific learning needs (SPU):

If you are a student with specific study needs that make it impossible for you to actively participate in classes, or objectively make writing the final test a disadvantage, this fact must be documented with a credible document, e.g. a statement from a pedagogical and psychological counseling service, no later than 31.10. by email containing all the necessary documents supporting your SPU. Later applications or applications not supported by a medical/psychological assessment will not be considered. Example: If, for example, you suffer from a certain degree of dyslexia and therefore need more time to write the test, which cannot be ensured in the case of a digital joint test, the examiner reserves the right to change the form of the test, for example to a paper test.
