| | Introduction to botany |
|
| The course presents an overview of the green organisms. It shows the features which justify their classification and which highlight the main evolutionary tracks. One expounds the traditional sections of the living kingdom before exploring the new sections. These are based, e.g. on endosymbiosis concept, characteristics of the cytokinesis or adaptation to terrestrial environment. |
| | part: Introduction to zoology |
|
| Après une introduction consacrée à la présentation des grandes lignes evolutives observées chez les Métazoaires, le cours se focalise sur l'étude d'un organisme, le lombric, abordée via l'utilisation croisée de différentes facettes de la science biologique: embryologie, morphologie, (éco-)physiologie, éthologie, écologie, applications agronomiques. |
|
|
| Course objective : |
| | Part: Cell biology |
|
| This introductory course on cell biology is devoted to studying the structure and functions of the cell, the common denominator of living matter. The terms of cell multiplication and reproductive are also discussed. |
| | Introduction to botany |
|
| To make understanding botanical diversity from the structure and the evolutionary points of view and to show its ecological importance. |
| | part: Introduction to zoology |
|
| Comprendre comment la structure et la physiologie d'une espèce dépendent des interactions spatiales, temporelles et fonctionnelles qu'elle entretient avec les autres acteurs de son milieu. |
|
|
| Prerequisites : |
| | Part: Cell biology |
|
| Mastering the French language. |
| | Introduction to botany |
|
| Advance knowledge of French |
| | part: Introduction to zoology |
|
| Maîtrise de la langue française |
|
|
| Workshops : |
| | Part: Cell biology |
|
| TP1: How to use a microscope and a binocular magnifying glass (common to this course and those of plant biology and animal)
TP2: osmosis and membrane permeability
TP3: Cell energetics
TP4: Mitosis and meiosis |
| | Introduction to botany |
|
| Workshops illustrate the concepts exposed during lectures. They represent another useful and tangible way of apprehending the contents of the course. Living organisms are dissected and examined and permanent microscope preparations are studied. Workshops make it also possible for students to assess their understanding of theoretical issues and give them opportunities to ask questions or engage in a dialogue with the holder or the assistants. |
| | part: Introduction to zoology |
|
| Les T.P. seront le reflet et l'application du cours théorique, dans la mesure où le lombric fera l'objet des deux séances.
-1.: Dissection d'un animal. Apprentissage d'une technique. Morphologie externe et interne, éléments de physiologie.
-2. Observations de coupes dans les 3 plans de l'espace. Projection et reconstruction spatiales, morphologie et physiologie fonctionnelles, et problèmes annexes. |

| Organization : |
| | Part: Cell biology |
|
| The lectures are given on Tuesday and Wednesday from 10:30 to 12:00 during the first 8 weeks of the first quadrimester.
Practical works concretely illustrate important aspects of the course. The sessions of practical works will give the first quadrimester in the Great Hall of practical work of the Institute of Zoology (building I1, 22, quai Van Beneden, Liege).
Some remediation thematic sessions will be held during the first quadrimester. They will be supplemented by sessions of remediation that can be arranged on request (Francine Marchal: fmarchal@ulg.ac.be) throughout the first quadrimester. |
| | Introduction to botany |
|
| Lectures are given in the course of the first term in continuation of cellular biology and zoology courses with which they are coordinated. Attendance to lectures and workshops is mandatory. |
| | part: Introduction to zoology |
|
| Le cours théorique se donne au 1er quadrimestre à la suite du cours de Biologie Cellulaire et avant celui d'introduction à la Botanique, avec lequel il est articulé. |
|
|
| Written notes : |
| | Part: Cell biology |
|
| Of course notes and a guide of practical work are available to students at the beginning of the academic year.

| Written notes are available but students are invited to take their own notes during the lectures.
Reference work: Biology of plants, by P. H. Raven, R. F. Evert & S. E. Eichhorn, W. H. Freeman and Company/Worth Publishers, New York, 1999. Several copies of the French translation of this book by J. Bouharmont could be consulted in ULg libraries ("Bibliothèque des candidatures" on the Sart Tilman campus and at the Institue of Zoology). |

|
| Des notes de cours sont disponibles. Elles ne dispensent nullement les étudiants de prendre des notes durant les exposés théoriques. |
|
|
| Assessment : |
| | Part: Cell biology |
|
| - Tests on the material seen during the theoretical course will be held during the first quadrimester, allowing students to evaluate themselves. The results of these questions will not be taken into account in the final mark.
- Tests on the subject of the practical work will be held at the end of each session of practical works in cell biology.
- An examination in the form of a written test on any matter (theory and practice), will be held at each session. The exam of cell biology will be held jointly with those of animal and plant biology (matter of the first quadrimester).
- The overall mark submitted for deliberation will consider the interrogation points obtained at the end of practical work sessions and the mark of written test. |
| | Introduction to botany |
|
| A written exam of open and multiple-choice questions |
| | part: Introduction to zoology |
|
| Un seul examen a lieu pour les 3 partims du cours. Ecrit, avec des questions ouvertes et/ou à choix multiples. |

| Remarks : |
| | Part: Cell biology |
|
| The practical works constitute substantial assistance in the acquisition of knowledge, in the acquisition of a critical spirit and in the development of a sense of observation. To be profitable, assistance to practical works involves the previous study of the corresponding matter (at least a thorough reading). The presence in the practical works is mandatory. Any absence for medical reasons must be justified by a certificate. In case of repeated unjustified absences, the student will be denied access to the examination of cell biology. |
