Over the last few years, the ADA officially announced new topics added to DAT Biology which are still incompletely covered in many other DAT preparation guides. The new topics introduced include: Archaebacteria, viruses, genomics, gene expression, and epigenetics. The current edition of the DAT Masters Series includes all content for the evolving DAT including the new topics.
There are many important DAT Biology topics that are either not on the MCAT or are so rare as MCAT questions that the topics are not properly covered in MCAT books. Here is a partial list: photosynthesis and plant biology, genetic technology, animal behavior and learning, population and community ecology, ecosystems, social behaviors of animals, etc. The Gold Standard DAT was designed specifically for the DAT so all ADA topics are presented in color followed by chapter review questions, answers and explanations.
Biomolecules, Origin of life, cell metabolism (including photosynthesis/enzymology), cellular processes, thermodynamics, organelle structure and function, mitosis/ meiosis, cell structure, and experimental cell biology.
Relationships, Biological Organization and Relationship of Major Taxa (Six-Kingdom, Three-Domain System) - plantae, animalia, protista, fungi, Eubacteria (bacteria), etc.; and more recently added by the ADA: viruses and Archaebacteria
Integumentary, skeletal, muscular,circulatory, immunological, digestive, respiratory, urinary, nervous/senses, endocrine, reproductive, etc.
Fertilization, descriptive embryology, developmental mechanisms.
Molecular genetics, human genetics, classical genetics, chromosomal genetics, and genetic technology.
New as of January, 2022: Genomics, gene expression, epigenetics
Natural selection, population genetics/speciation, population and community ecology, ecosystems, and animal behavior (including social behavior).
