Learning outcomes
The course aims to provide students with the knowledge needed to understand the organization and operation of an autotrophic organism and the consequences of autotrophy metabolism s (as opposed to mixotrophy and heterotrophy).
The course has two modules called "Plant Physiology" and "Catalysis of autotrophic biosynthesis".
The "Plant Physiology" module provides the basics of functions that allow the plant life in unicellular and multicellular organisms, including the absorption of solutes, the transport of water and organic and inorganic substances, the perception of environmental signals, integration of internal and external signals with the mechanisms that control the development of the plant and its reproduction or vegetative growth. The classic themes of plant physiology will be especially extended to single-celled photosynthetic organisms that live in the aquatic environment.
Program
Plant Physiology :
Photosynthetic organisms
The plant cell
Water management in plant cells
