【Course Objectives】

Cells produce energy through metabolic reactions, using it to assemble or disassemble various molecules used in biological processes. This course will teach students how this process works.

【Course Contents】

A cell’s metabolism is a dynamic network of chemical reactions that occur in all living cells. From bacteria all the way to humans, all types of life share this fundamental process. Through their metabolism, cells produce energy, enabling them to both assemble and disassemble various biological macromolecules. Just how do cells manage to pull off such a sophisticated array of processes?
Students will learn the answer to this question through the study of the following topics: 1. The mechanism of how cells metabolize sugars, producing the energy they need to sustain life.
2. The mechanism of photosynthesis, through which plant cells produce energy.
3. The mechanisms through which cells assemble and disassemble various biological molecules, such as lipids, amino acids, and nucleotides.
