This textbook has been designed to meet the needs of B.Sc. First Semester students of Zoology for the Ranchi University and other Universities in Jharkhand under the recommended National Education Policy 2020. It comprehensively covers the theoretical and practical aspect of the paper Non-chordates and Chordates. The theory part of Group A aptly discusses the identification and classification of non-chordate animals on the basis of their morphological characteristics and describes the organisation, complexity and characteristic features of non-chordate animals. Group B discusses the classes of chordates, level of organisation and evolutionary relationship between different subphyla and classes, within and outside the phylum. Relevant experiments corresponding to the theoretical topics and examples have been presented systematically to help students achieve sound conceptual understanding and learn experimental procedures.

  • Well-labelled diagrams have been provided for easy understanding of the concepts
  • Boxed items throughout the text providing information on intricate terms and topics
  • Engaging chapter-end exercises have been provided for practice
  • Collection of experiments to stimulate interest and aid in learning and memorizing the practical aspect of the subject
