The Medical Council of India (MCI) recommended the following syllabus for NATIONAL ELIGIBILITY
CUM ENTRANCE TEST for admission to MBBS/BDS courses across the country after review of various
State syllabi as well as those prepared by CBSE, NCERT and COBSE. This is to establish uniformity across
the country keeping in view the relevance of different areas in Medical Education.

major groups; Lichens; Viruses and Viroids.
Salient features and classification of plants into major groups-Algae, Bryophytes, Pteridophytes,
Gymnosperms and Angiosperms (three to five salient and distinguishing features and at least two
examples of each category); Angiosperms- classification up to class, characteristic features and
examples).
Salient features and classification of animals-nonchordate up to phyla level and chordate up to
classes level (three to five salient features and at least two examples).
Unit II : Structural Organisation in Animals and Plants

plants: Root, stem, leaf, inflorescence- cymose and recemose, flower, fruit and seed (To be dealt
along with the relevant practical of the Practical Syllabus).
Animal tissues; Morphology, anatomy and functions of different systems (digestive, circulatory,
respiratory, nervous and reproductive) of an insect (cockroach). (Brief account only)
Unit III : Cell Structure and Function
Cell theory and cell as the basic unit of life; Structure of prokaryotic and eukaryotic cell; Plant
cell and animal cell; Cell envelope, cell membrane, cell wall; Cell organelles-structure and function;

function); Nucleus-nuclear membrane, chromatin, nucleolus.
Chemical constituents of living cells: Biomolecules-structure and function of proteins,
carbodydrates, lipids, nucleic acids; Enzymes-types, properties, enzyme action.
B Cell division: Cell cycle, mitosis, meiosis and their significance.
Unit IV : Plant Physiology
Transport in plants: Movement of water, gases and nutrients; Cell to cell transport-Diffusion, facilitated
diffusion, active transport; Plant – water relations – Imbibition, water potential, osmosis, plasmolysis;
Long distance transport of water – Absorption, apoplast, symplast, transpiration pull, root pressure
and guttation; Transpiration-Opening and closing of stomata; Uptake and translocation of mineral
nutrients-Transport of food, phloem transport, Mass flow hypothesis; Diffusion of gases (brief
mention).
