This UE is a transversal UE of L2 SV aiming at giving to the students in Biology a basic knowledge on the functioning of plants allowing to understand the current stakes of the plant Agro-sciences.

The following basic Plant Physiology/Functional Biology will be studied: 

essential experimental approaches: plant transgenesis, direct and reverse genetics

basics of autotrophy

mechanisms underlying the major stages of angiosperm development: meristem function, floral transition, fertilization.

auxin, a major hormone for the development of plants and their response to the abiotic environment

The practical sessions will allow students to manipulate the regulation of water nutrition in plants and to analyze their mineral nutrition using different biochemical assays (flame photometry, spectrophotometry).

This course is an introduction to the general concepts of scientific ecology: levels of organization, measurement and conservation of biodiversity, biogeography, biotic and abiotic factors of distribution and dynamics of biodiversity. It also provides an understanding of the methods used in scientific ecology: the importance of experimentation, reflection on the construction of a protocol, data analysis, oral and written reports of an experiment

The 2nd year computer science course at the Lycée focuses on advanced concepts in algorithms and programming:

# Tree-like data structures: binary trees, heaps, ABR, priority queues

# Heap sorting, lower limit on sorting

# Graph structure: representations (adjacency matrices, edge lists, neighbor lists)

# Basic algorithms (connectivity, depth and width traversal, topological sorting)

# Distance calculation (Dijkstra, heap implementation)

# Introduction to object programming (encapsulation, late linking, classes, methods, etc.)

# Programming in Python

This UE completes the computer science training by opening up to the study of information systems and databases (design of processing in an information system and management of relational databases):

# Information systems: introduction of the entity/association model, relational model, processing modeling (conceptual processing model, organizational processing model).

# Databases: create, manipulate and query relational databases.
