Vertebrates can be classified as ectotherms and endotherms, as well as fish and tetrapods. Ectothermic tetrapods exhibit an amazing diversity of adapatations to varied habitats. The herpetology features the diversified morphology, physiology, reproduction, feeding, behavior, and ecology of amphibians and non-avian reptiles, as well as the raising and breeding of associated pets. This course will also lead students to conduct oral literature presentations in groups, so that they can integrate and apply the acquired knowledge.
