  2. General Information • Dr. Ibrahim Barakat • AB 106 • ibrahimahb@yahoo.com • Office hours • Sunday, 10 am – 12 am • By appointment

  3. Learning Objectives • Structure, function and cytogenetics of the animal cell • Different animal tissues • Taxonomy علم تصنيف الأنواع • Important Phyla الشعب, Classes الأصناف, Genera الأجناس, and Species الأنواع • Anatomy and physiology • Interesting structures • Nutrition, digestion and metabolism • Blood composition and function

  4. Assessment • Lecture • 2 lecture exams (30 %) • Cumulative final exam (40 %) • 70 % of total grade • Laboratory • 2 laboratory exams • Lab notebook • Field trip or paper • 30 % of total grade

  5. Tips نصائح for Succeeding in Lecture • Read assigned chapters before attending lecture (do the same for lab) • Study at least 4 hrs per week, from notes • See me with specific questions • Tests are combination of multiple-choice and short answer / fill-in questions • Test questions will be derived from both the lecture notes

Subfields of zoology • Zoographyعلم الحيوان الوصفي , also known as descriptive zoology: describesيصفanimalsand their habitatsأماكن معيشتها • Comparativeanatomyعلمالتشريح المقارن :studiesthe structure of animals. • Animal physiologyعلم وظائف الأعضاء: is the study of the mechanical, physical, and biochemical functions of animals. • Molecular Biologyعلمالبيولوجيا الجزيئية : studies the common geneticالوراثيةand developmental التطوريةmechanisms of animals and plants.

  10. Subfields of zoology • Behavioralecology:علم البيئة السلوكيis the study of theecologicalالبيئيandevolutionaryالتطوريbasis for animal behavior, and the roles of behavior in enabling an animal toadaptيتكيفtoitsenvironment (bothintrinsicداخلياand extrinsicوخارجيا ). • Evolutionary biologyعلم البيولوجيا التطوري :See of both animals and plants is considered in the articles on evolution, population genetics, heredity, variation, Mendelism, reproduction. • Systematicsعلم التصنيفandtaxonomyعلم التقيبم :classifyيصنفand group speciesويرتب الأنواع via common descent and regional associations.

  11. Subfields of zoology • Entomologyعلم الحشرات :is the study ofinsectsالحشرات , the largest group of animals.
