These important concepts will be the basis for understanding more advanced courses in Biology and will allow you to understand new developments in Biology for many years after completing your university studies. However, enough facts must be learned to be able to understand the concepts. The attached lists of chemicals and bacteria must be memorized according to the instructions on the lists. The text contains too much material to be covered in class. We will, therefore, lecture on, and examine over, the most important material.
Study guides are available to indicate the most important material.
All exam questions will be taken from material presented in class or listed on the study guide. Use the study guide to identify the topics to be covered in lecture and study those topics in detail. Use the text and study guide to fill in any gaps in the lecture notes. Concentrate on the lecture notes. Remember that Microbiology is, by nature, continually building on material already learned.
