This course provides undergraduate students with an understanding of the fundamental concepts and principles of the structures and functions related to plants and animals. The course is divided into two parts: Animal physiology and Plant Physiology. Principles and fundamental aspects of vital plant functions, including nutrition, photosynthesis, absorption and translocation of materials, growth, and development, with emphasis on adaptive mechanism. Animal Physiology deals with the fundamental principles of biological functions observed for members of the Animal Kingdom. Particular emphasis is placed on the processes involved with regulation and adaptation to different stimuli.
This course offers a wide array of learning activities (e.g. discussion-based lectures, computer simulations, infographics making) to cater multiple intelligences. These learning activities are carried out in a flexible/blended format, and the course content and learning materials are accessible through the Moodle Learning Management System (LMS) provided by the University.
