About this Course

This course introduces students to the basic concepts of cell biology. The syllabus includes topics on cell structures and unctions in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. The DNA and cellular reproduction, cell membrane, cell transport and ethical issues in science and technology are also dealt with.
