  • 一般

    Biology is the study of life forms and in this undergraduate course the students will be studying life history events of fishes, including shellfishes in the context of fisheries and important aquaculture species. The main aim of this course is to introduce the immensely fascinating world of fish biology, to give advanced information on the unique adaptations of various biological systems of fish and shellfish, to provide basic practical skills in different aspects of aquatic biology such as sampling of fish and shellfish, quantitative meristic and morphometrics, comparative studies on gills, scales, pharyngeal teeth and brain of fishes and to understand the principles of aquatic biology life in freshwater; lentic and lotic environments, freshwater wetlands will be discussed in this course.

            Objectives: To understand the mechanisms that control the movement and digestion of food, methods of assessing digestibility of feed, factors affecting digestion and absorption of food nutrients, and feeding processes in fish are discussed. An understanding of feeding habits, feeding mechanisms, and the digestion and absorption processes can help fish farmers and nutritionists maximize the use of feed.

                    Objectives: Introduce the aquaculture system types and their importance in food security. The aquatic system faces several challenges and one such is a disease for proper health management. This lecture discusses the factors for health management in the aquatic system and the importance of stress-driving factors in the aquatic system from the biological point of view,

                        Haematopoieses and haematopoietic organs System-in-Finfishes

                        Objectives: to introduce the blood types and haematopoietic progenitor cells and to differentiate into mature blood cells: erythrocytes, lymphocytes, thrombocytes, granulocytes, and monocytes. The pronephros, or head kidney, is a basic organ forming the blood elements and is also a reservoir of blood cells.
