Course description
The living body is composed of an enormous number of cells, and the life network is controlled by an advanced network.
In order to understand such a complicated mechanism, students learn biological components such as sugar, lipids, proteins, etc., and metabolic systems centered on enzymatic reactions in vivo based on a chemical viewpoint.
As a result, it is possible to understand the mechanism of maintenance of homeostasis of the living body.
Purpose of class
In order to understand the cell as an activity unit of life at the molecular level, students acquire basic knowledge on the structure, function, biosynthesis, metabolism of cell constituent molecules.
Goals and objectives
  1. Explain the type and role of biological components.
  2. Explain the basic structure of the cell.
  3. Explain the biosynthetic pathway of biological components.
  4. Explain various metabolic systems in vivo.
Language
Japanese
