General description | Biological systems are part of nature and as such should obey the laws of chemistry and physics. Chemistry is important because is necessary to know what medicine is good for the animal according to diagnosis. Physics is a very important part of veterinary medicine. It come in very useful for the tools, machinery, X-rays and lasers which are used in veterinary surgery or diagnosis. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Other comments and second call | |||
The knowledge acquired will be evaluated through two exams, corresponding to each of the parts (Chemistry and Physics) of which the subject consists - Fundamentals of Chemistry and Physics - and which contribute with equal weight to the overall final grade, as long as both parts are approved, as indicated below. In order to pass the subject, the student must pass the two parts of the subject separately, that is, obtain in each part at least 50% of the maximum possible grade (5 points out of 10 in each part). Each part of the subject will be evaluated separately, with the maximum grade in each of them being 5 points. It will be necessary to obtain a minimum grade of 2 points (out of 5) in the “Objective test of short questions”, so that the rest of the evaluable activities (corresponding to the continuous evaluation) can be added. The passing grade in each of the parts will be achieved when the total sum of all the activities reaches a grade of 2.5 points (out of 5) in each of the parts of the subject. If both parts are approved, the final grade will correspond to the arithmetic mean of the two grades. If one of the two parts is not approved, the final grade of the call will correspond to the grade obtained in the non-approved part, regardless of the result obtained in the other part. If neither part is approved, the final grade will correspond to the arithmetic mean of the two grades. In the extraordinary call, the student may only take the exam, if he or she wishes, for the part of the subject not approved in the first call, keeping the grade for the approved part. In any other extraordinary call or calls for subsequent courses, the student must take the entire subject again. Criteria for repeating students: No grade from the previous course is retained. During any in-person activity (classes, exams, practices, etc.), the use and mere possession of electronic devices that enable communication (mobile phones, radio transmitters, etc.) are expressly prohibited, unless expressly authorized by the teacher. Especially during the development of evaluable tests, only the material and help explicitly permitted by the teacher in advance may be used. In particular, the possession and use of unauthorized mobile and/or electronic devices is strictly prohibited during the course of the exams. If any irregularity occurs during the evaluation test or the simple possession of said devices, as well as notes, books, folders or various unauthorized materials during the evaluation tests and based on the corresponding current regulations, it will be the immediate withdrawal of the exam, the expulsion of the student from the classroom and the grade of 0 in the subject, transferring the incident to the corresponding Academic Authority to carry out the pertinent regulatory actions provided for in the regulations of the University of León. |
