COURSE OUTCOMES
Academic Year: 2023-2024
B.SC- ZOOLOGY
SEMESTER: I
ANIMAL DIVERSITY: INVERTEBRATES: I
On the successful completion of the course the students will be able to
• Students will learn the basic taxonomy and systematic of non chordates.
• They will learn about common protozoan, helminthes parasites causing diseases to human
beings.
• Students will learn not only about biology of few selected non chordates but also about pearl
formation, metamerism in annelids, economic importance of insects and know the significance
of larval forms of echinoderms.
SEMESTER –II
ANIMAL DIVERSITY-VERTEBRATES-II
After the successful completion of the course the student will be able to
• Students will learn about the taxonomic status of the chordates and the evolution of the group
• They will learn about the comparative and development in chordates.
• They will know about conserve and management strategies of chordate fauna.
SEMESTER –III
ANIMAL PHYSIOLOGY AND ANIMAL BEHAVIOUR-III
On the successful completion of the course the student will be able to
• Provide students with learning experiences that help in still deep interests in learning digestion , respiration , circulation , excretory products, urine formation, muscle contraction mechanism, conduction of nerve impulse , endocrine glands , enzymes ,biochemistry, and animal behaviour.
• Develop broad and balanced knowledge and understanding of learning digestion , respiration , circulation , excretory products, urine formation ,muscle contraction mechanism, conduction of nerve impulse , endocrine glands , enzymes, biochemistry, biomolecules, key biochemical concepts, principles and theories related to biochemistry and animal behaviour equip students with appropriate tools of analysis and with theoretical, technical and analytical skills to tackle issues and problems in the field of biochemistry
• Provide students with some work experience, for example a summer internship or a research project in a research laboratory to further boost the career prospects.
• Develop in students the ability to apply the knowledge and skills they have acquired to the solution of specific theoretical and applied problemsin physiology and biochemistry
• Provide students with the knowledge and skill base that would enable them to undertake further studies in physiology and biochemistry and related areas or in multidisciplinary areas that involve biochemistry and help develop a range of generic skills that are relevant to wage employment, self-employment and entrepreneurship.
SEMESTER –IV
CELL BIOLOGY, GENETICS & DEVELPOMENT BIOLOGY –IV
On the successful completion of the course the student will be able to
• Students will know about the cell and its biology, which will help the students to understand the origins of cells and the
generation of cell diversity, as well as the common features of cellular structure and function – how they obtain energy,
synthesize new molecules, communicate, proliferate and survive.
• By studying molecular biology students will gain an understanding of the DNA & RNA structure, protein synthesis, gene
expression ,and molecular techniques.
• Students will understand the structures and purposes of basic components of Prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells, especially
macromolecules, membranes, and organ
• Students will understand and gain knowledge of developmental biology along with physiology and fundamental processes
of fertilization of an egg cell and its step-by- step transformation into the fascinating complexity of a whole organism.
• By studying genetics students will gain an understanding of the sex determination, sex linkage,
and chromosomal mutations and in born errors.
SEMESTER –V
IMMUNOLOGY AND ANILMAL BIOTECHNOLOGY –V
On the successful completion of the course the student will be able to
• To get insight in primary and secondary organs of immune system, types of Immunity – innate and acquired.
• To describe antigen city and factors affecting it, antibody-antigen interaction, Autoimmune diseases. Transgenesis –
methods of transgenesis, production of Transgenic animals, application of transgenic animals in biotechnology.
• To explain cell mediated immunity, monoclonal antibody production and Hypersensitivity.
• To understand the steps involved in recombinant DNA technology, cloning vectors and principles of animal culture, media
preparation, invitro fertilization and embryo Transfer technology.
• To get insight in applications or recombinant DNA technology.
