課程概述 |
This is an introductory course on the diversity of eukaryotes in different aspects — from genomes to ecological interactions. Major topics include evolutionary relationships and history, cell structures and functions, and importance for various ecosystems and humanity. The emphasis is on eukaryotes that are not land plants, animals, or fungi — namely protists (algae and non-photosynthetic microbial eukaryotes, including diverse amebae, flagellates and shelled microbes). |
|
課程目標 |
The student will acquire a basic understanding of:
1. Evolutionary origin and history of eukaryotes and their organelles
2. Diversity of eukaryotic genomes, cells, and organismic biology
3. Major eukaryotic lineages and important eukaryotic microbes
4. Relationships between eukaryotic microbes and Earth, ecosystems, humans, and other organisms |
