This 24-page Semmelweis Medicine Biology Entrance Exam 2026/2027 study guide contains 100+ questions and provided answers covering a broad range of biology topics relevant to medical entrance-exam preparation. The material begins with biochemistry and molecular biology, including carbohydrates, monosaccharides and polysaccharides, lipids, triglycerides, saturated and unsaturated fatty acids, protein structure, DNA and RNA, hydrogen bonding, mRNA, tRNA, rRNA and snRNA. It then progresses into enzymes, glycolysis, the Krebs cycle, ATP production, cellular respiration, DNA replication, transcription and translation, providing students with concentrated question-and-answer revision of fundamental biological processes. Cell biology is another major component. The document reviews the nucleus, chromosomes, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, ribosomes, cytoskeleton, cell membranes, endocytosis and exocytosis, as well as mitosis and meiosis. Students encounter questions on crossing over, genetic recombination, prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, viruses, bacterial transformation and conjugation. The material subsequently expands into human anatomy and physiology, covering digestion and nutrient absorption, digestive enzymes, respiration and pulmonary gas exchange, the excretory and circulatory systems, heart function, blood, immunity and coagulation. The guide also addresses cellular and humoral immune responses, innate and adaptive immunity, muscles and muscle contraction, joints, male and female reproductive biology, the ovarian cycle, ovulation and menstruation, and endocrine physiology involving the pituitary, adrenal and thyroid glands. Nervous-system material includes the autonomic nervous system, spinal reflexes, spinal-cord functions, neuron structure, resting and action potentials, vision, hearing and olfaction. These topics provide a broad foundation for applicants reviewing the biological principles underlying human medicine. Genetics and inheritance receive substantial attention in the later sections. Topics include Mendel's laws, genes and gene expression, frameshift, missense and nonsense mutations, chromosomal abnormalities, Down syndrome, Turner syndrome, Klinefelter syndrome, Edwards syndrome and Patau syndrome. The document also reviews dominant, recessive and sex-linked inheritance, the genetic code, the lac operon, Darwinian natural selection, steroid hormones, the appendicular skeleton, water-soluble vitamins, pepsin, tubulin, centrioles, triploidy, monoploidy, aneuploidy, autosomes, sex chromosomes, connective tissue and epithelium. Relevant students: Semmelweis University medicine applicants, international applicants preparing for the Semmelweis University entrance examination, prospective medical students reviewing entrance-level biology, pre-medical students, applicants to health-science programs requiring biology entrance preparation, and students who need concentrated revision of biochemistry, cell biology, molecular biology, genetics, anatomy and human physiology. The uploaded document specifically identifies the material as Semmelweis Entrance Exam Medicine Biology 2026/2027, making Semmelweis University the institutionally relevant audience for the study resource.

What are carbohydrates and lipids? - ANSWER ✔✔Organic

compounds that are mostly composed of three types of atom; carbon,

hydrogen and oxygen


What do carbohydrates do? - ANSWER ✔✔provide energy, in the

form of sugars like glucose and fructose, but they also make up

structures like cellulose, which form the cell wall of plant cells

,What type of carbohydrate is the most important source of energy? -

ANSWER ✔✔mono-, di- and poly-saccharides


What are mono and disaccharides? - ANSWER ✔✔polar and soluble

in water


What are polysaccharides? - ANSWER ✔✔Macromolecules resulting

from polymerisation (condensation) of sugars and are not soluble in

water


Examples of monosaccharides - ANSWER ✔✔ribose, glucose,

fructose, galactose


What forms a disaccharide? - ANSWER ✔✔two monosaccharides

linked together by condensation reactions with glycosidic bonds

releasing one H2O molecule


Alpha glucose structure - ANSWER ✔✔


Beta glucose structure - ANSWER ✔✔

In animals, what carbohydrate stores energy? - ANSWER

✔✔glycogen


What jobs do carbohydrates have other than storing energy? -

ANSWER ✔✔structural components


What differs the polysaccharides all made up of glucose? - ANSWER

✔✔they differ in the arrangement of glucose molecules and position of

the glycosidic bonds


Starch arrangement - ANSWER ✔✔amylopectin branched, amylose

linear


What is galactose? - ANSWER ✔✔a sugar in milk


What is fructose? - ANSWER ✔✔a sugar found in fruit and honey


Main characteristic of lipids? - ANSWER ✔✔little to no affinity to

water, mostly hydrophobic
