CELL & MOLECULAR BIOLOGY + GENETICS
YEAR 1 | PAGE 9A - CELL STRUCTURE, TRANSPORT & CELL-CYCLE MASTERY
Build the cell as a working system: MEMBRANE/TRANSPORT -> ORGANELLES -> CYTOSKELETON -> CELL CYCLE -> SIGNALS/CHECKPOINTS -> CELL DEATH. For every structure, connect normal function to the disease produced when that function fails.

- Draw a cell and label organelles, cytoskeletal elements, junctions and trafficking routes from memory.
- Predict what happens when a channel, pump, receptor, organelle or cytoskeletal component fails.
- Reconstruct G1/S/G2/M and explain which checkpoint, cyclin/CDK or tumor suppressor is being tested in a vignette.
- Link mitochondrial/lysosomal/peroxisomal dysfunction to inheritance pattern, biochemical consequence and organ-level phenotype. VIDEO-FIRST | SCHOOL-EXAM + BOARD-EXAM MASTERY
