| １． |
Outline |
|
The lecture will explain the roles of microorganisms, which are different from those of plants and animals in nature. Furthermore, it will explain the specific cellular structure and function, and the interaction with plants, animals, and insects (DP1, DP2).
|
| ２． |
Objectives |
|
Students can understand fundamental properties and roles of microorganisms in nature.
|
| ３． |
Grading Policy |
|
Grading is determined with the final examination (100 %). Attendance more than 2/3 is necessary to take the examination. Reexamination is not going to be held. Feedback on the test will be conducted after the final lecture.
|
| ４． |
Textbook and Reference |
|
The lecture will be conducted with handouts.
|
| ５． |
Requirements (Assignments) |
