The aim of the course:
Provide basic knowledge on living organisms especially concentrating on marine life. Give a general information on the cell, histology, anatomy and physiology of the organisms and mentioned about the diversity of life and genetic code. The information will be a base for the following subjects such as fish and marine biology, microbiology, fish culture and seafood handling and processing that they will undertake during their study. .
 
Learning OutcomesCTPOTOA
Upon successful completion of the course, the students will be able to :
LO - 1 : summarize the basic chemical compounds of living organisms.9,171
LO - 2 : describe the structure and functions of cell and living organisms.9,171,4
LO - 3 : evaluate the functional correlation between histology, if any organs and systems in living organisms.9,171,3,4
LO - 4 : demonstrate a background knowledge on the main metabolic activities in living organisms.9,171,4
LO - 5 : gain a basic background knowledge on reproduction, growth and development of living organisms and how genetic characteristics of organisms pass to new organisms.9,171,3,4
CTPO : Contribution to programme outcomes, TOA :Type of assessment (1: written exam, 2: Oral exam, 3: Homework assignment, 4: Laboratory exercise/exam, 5: Seminar / presentation, 6: Term paper), LO : Learning Outcome
