It envolves a class with 43 students' starting in 2013's first semester, aged 17 to 30 years. This study is based on student's spontaneous and scientific conceptions about cell/living beings. We aimed to identify students' knowledge in this area and use structured interview (questionnaire). Data was analyzed according to the dialectical method and references presented. We observe that, in general, students presented a limited scientific knowledge for both central and derivative biological concepts.
