JIPMER exam study material

Here I am looking for the JIPMER-MBBS Syllabus, will you please provide me the same?????????

[Arun Vats]

JIPMER does not prescribe any syllabus for the Entrance Examination. the questions for JIPMER exam will be based on syllabus for 11th and 12th standard students as prescribed by State Board HSc and CBSE

So here I am sharing the CBSE 12th biology syllabus:

Reproduction 30 periods
Reproduction in organisms: Reproduction, a characteristic feature of all organisms for continuation
of species; modes of reproduction - asexual and sexual reproduction; asexual reproduction - binary
fission, sporulation, budding, gemmule, fragmentation; vegetative propagation in plants.
Sexual reproduction in flowering plants: Flower structure; development of male and female
gametophytes; pollination - types, agencies and examples; outbreeding devices; pollen-pistil
interaction; double fertilization; post fertilization events - development of endosperm and embryo,
development of seed and formation of fruit; special modes-apomixis, parthenocarpy, polyembryony;
Significance of seed dispersal and fruit formation.
Human Reproduction: Male and female reproductive systems; microscopic anatomy of testis and
ovary; gametogenesis - spermatogenesis and oogenesis; menstrual cycle; fertilisation, embryo
development upto blastocyst formation, implantation; pregnancy and placenta formation (elementary
idea); parturition (elementary idea); lactation (elementary idea).
Reproductive health: Need for reproductive health and prevention of sexually transmitted diseases
(STD); birth control - need and methods, contraception and medical termination of pregnancy
(MTP); amniocentesis; infertility and assisted reproductive technologies - IVF, ZIFT, GIFT
(elementary idea for general awareness).

Unit 2: Genetics and Evolution 40 Periods
Heredity and variation: Mendelian inheritance; deviations from Mendelism - incomplete
dominance, co-dominance, multiple alleles and inheritance of blood groups, pleiotropy; elementary
idea of polygenic inheritance; chromosome theory of inheritance; chromosomes and genes; Sex
determination - in humans, birds and honey bee; linkage and crossing over; sex linked inheritance -
haemophilia, colour blindness; Mendelian disorders in humans - thalassemia; chromosomal disorders
in humans; Down's syndrome, Turner's and Klinefelter's syndromes.

Molecular basis of inheritance: Search for genetic material and DNA as genetic material; Structure
of DNA and RNA; DNA packaging; DNA replication; Central dogma; transcription, genetic code,
translation; gene expression and regulation - lac operon; genome and human genome project; DNA
fingerprinting.

Evolution: Origin of life; biological evolution and evidences for biological evolution (paleontology,
comparative anatomy, embryology and molecular evidence); Darwin's contribution, modern
synthetic theory of evolution; mechanism of evolution - variation (mutation and recombination)
and natural selection with examples, types of natural selection; Gene flow and genetic drift; Hardy
- Weinberg's principle; adaptive radiation; human evolution.

Unit 3: Biology and Human Welfare 30 Periods
Health and disease: Pathogens; parasites causing human diseases (malaria, filariasis, ascariasis,
typhoid, pneumonia, common cold, amoebiasis, ring worm); Basic concepts of immunology -
vaccines; cancer, HIV and AIDS; Adolescence, drug and alcohol abuse.

Improvement in food production: Plant breeding, tissue culture, single cell protein, Biofortification,
Apiculature and Animal husbandry.

Microbes in human welfare: In household food processing, industrial production, sewage treatment,
energy generation and as biocontrol agents and biofertilizers.

Unit 4: Biotechnology and Its Applications 30 Periods
Principles and processes of biotechnology: Genetic Engineering (Recombinant DNA Technology).
Application of biotechnology in health and agriculture: Human insulin and vaccine production,
gene therapy; genetically modified organisms - Bt crops; transgenic animals; biosafety issues, bio
piracy and patents.

Unit 5: Ecology and Environment 30 Periods
Organisms and environment: Habitat and niche, population and ecological adaptations; population
interactions - mutualism, competition, predation, parasitism; population attributes - growth, birth
rate and death rate, age distribution.
Ecosystems: Patterns, components; productivity and decomposition; energy flow; pyramids of
number, biomass, energy; nutrient cycles (carbon and phosphorous); ecological succession; ecological
services - carbon fixation, pollination, seed dispersal, oxygen release.

Biodiversity and its conservation: Concept of biodiversity; patterns of biodiversity; importance
of biodiversity; loss of biodiversity; biodiversity conservation; hotspots, endangered organisms,
extinction, Red Data Book, biosphere reserves, national parks and sanctuaries.

Environmental issues: Air pollution and its control; water pollution and its control; agrochemicals
and their effects; solid waste management; radioactive waste management; greenhouse effect and
global warming; ozone depletion; deforestation; any three case studies as success stories addressing
environmental issues, diseases; dengue and chickengunia.
