1. To acquire the understanding of the structure of the main types of organic molecules;
2. To acquire the understanding of the different types of isomerism and their implications in biological activity;
3. To acquire the understanding of the main mechanisms of reaction of organic molecules;
4. To understand the importance of the mechanisms of reaction of organic molecules in the biochemical processes that occur in the vegetal cell;
5. The competences will be applied and explored later in the other subjects more specific.

Clarification of concepts.
The classes are expositive, sometimes with PowerPoints, but the most part times using the blackboard.
Laboratorial lessons: 2 hours per week for group. The number of groups depends on the number of pupils.
All students work in laboratory.
