Biologia Celular e dos Tecidos

Not applicable.

Lecture (T) classes will targeted the theoretical foundations of the course, practical (TP) classes target questions resolution and laboratory (PL) classes the application of the acquired concepts. In lecture classes the theoretical concepts exposition will be performed by Powerpoint projection. In the practical classes the different chapters exercise sheets are solved. In laboratory classes practical work to identify cell structure and morphology will be performed. All study material is made available through the platform adopted by ISEC.

The main objective of this course is to provide students with the fundamental concepts of Cell and Tissue Biology. It is intended that students be able to: i) recognize the microorganisms and apply in practice cell study methodologies; ii) identify and distinguish cellular structures and function in prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells; iii) recognize the structure of the main cell tissues.
