Karp’s Cell and Molecular Biology: Concepts and Experiments 8th Edition -ISBN 139781118886144
eBook Description
Designed for courses in Cell Biology offered at the Sophomore/Junior level, Karp’s Cell and Molecular Biology: Concepts and Experiments, Binder Ready Version, 8th Edition continues to be the best book in the market at connecting key concepts to the experiments that reveal how we know what we know in the world of Cell Biology. This classic text explores core concepts in considerable depth, often adding experimental detail. It is written in an inviting style and at mid-length, to assist students in managing the plethora of details encountered in the Cell Biology course. In this edition, two new co-authors take the helm and help to expand upon the hallmark strengths of the book, update and integrate text and media in a useful way, improving the student learning experience.
Table of Contents :
1. Introduction to the Study of Cell and Molecular Biology
2. The Chemical Basis of Life
3. Bioenergetics, Enzymes and Metabolism
4. The Structure and Function of the Plasma Membrane
5. Aerobic Respiration and the Mitochondrion
6. Photosynthesis and the Chloroplast
7. Interactions Between Cells and Their Environment
8. Cytoplasmic Membrane Systems: Structure, Function, and Membrane Trafficking
9. The Cytoskeleton and Cell Motility
10. The Nature of the Gene and the Genome
11. Gene Expression: From Transcription to Translation
12. Control of Gene Expression
13. DNA Replication and Repair
14. Cellular Reproduction
15 Cell Signaling and Signal Transduction: Communication between Cells
16. Cancer
17. The Immune Response
18. Techniques in Cell and Molecular Biology
Features
- Offers an appropriate balance of concepts and experimentation. Experimental detail is offered when it helps to reinforce the concept being explained.
- Strong illustration program includes stepped-out art to break down complex processes.
- Illustrations are paired with micrographs to help students compare the real (micrograph) with the ideal (illustration).
- Human aspects of cell biology are integral to this text, with “Human Perspective” essays throughout.
