Course Description


This course is designed as a general introduction to cells. We will study the similarity and differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells before focusing on animal cells. At the end of this course, you will have a clear understanding and knowledge of the structure and function of membranes, cellular organelles, and the endomembrane system, and their essential role in the cell.

The course contains:

  • Focused Video Lectures
  • Downloadable Lecture Notes
  • Downloadable Worksheets
  • Quizzes with In-Depth Explanations
  • Full Access for 12 Months
  • Access to the Exclusive MondoScience Community Group


The knowledge you will gain from this course will enable you to move onto more complex topics in Biology and Biochemistry with confidence.

Difficulty level: Easy

Dr. Jeelan Moghraby

Over my years of teaching, I have seen a lot of students struggle with the basic concepts of the four main types of macromolecules that are found in cells. I have seen many misconceptions, and assumptions made that it is too hard to learn fast.So I have created this mini course to save you the time and trouble of learning the hard way.With my passion of teaching science, and your motivation to learn, I will help you reach your goal to understand the key aspects of macromolecules and be able to apply that knowledge with confidence.
