Description
This course presents the biology of eukaryotic parasitic organisms, taking into account their diversity. We will deal with unicellulars as well as vertebrates.
In addition to the physiological, anatomical and morphological aspects, a great deal of attention will be paid to the description of their life cycles, which imperatively require a transmission phase to an obligatory host.
Necessary pre-requisites
UE de L1 : From cells to organism/ From organisms to ecosystems/ Life cycles-
UE of L2 S3 BO functions and BO evolution or basic skills in Organismal Biology in L1 and L2 S3

Additional information
In principle, the CC will be divided into 3 events:
A simple evaluation (fill-in-the-blank questions, MCQs) of basic concepts
-An evaluation on the construction of a simple cycle
-A "model organism" form to be drawn up in class (by pair - computer or tablet required)
Targeted competencies
- D - Biology of organisms
- A3-Know the different levels of organization from the organism to the biosphere and their interactions
- C3- Know the main flows of matter and energy in a terrestrial and aquatic ecosystem
- I 14 -Use of basic laboratory techniques (bio-mol, dilution, microscopic observation, dissection, sample preparation)
-I 3 - Be able to develop a logical argument with a critical mind (limits, confrontation with the biblio, defense of a point of view)
