520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc Book Summary:<br/>The dimensions of biology are fast increasing with more and more emphasis on cell biology, molecular biology, genetics, biochemistry, physiology, electron microscopy, biotechnology and development biology (embryology), etc. The importance of basic zoology, however, cannot be ignored; most teachers and researchers rightly feel the need for a strong base in general zoology as a prerequisite for all fields of specializations. Jordan’s “Chordate Zoology” has served a great deal towards the fulfillment of this aim. It has been a national bestseller for more than four decades.<br/><br/><br/>Audience of the Book :<br/>FOR B.Sc & B.Sc.(Hons) CLASSES OF ALL INDIAN UNIVERSITIES AND ALSO AS PER UGC MODEL CURRICULUMN<br/> <br/>Key Features:<br/>The main features of the book are as follows:<br/><br/>1.New chapters and topics which have been added in the present edition are : (i) Pisces (Fishes) : Labeo rohita (Type study); Comparison of Chondrichthyes and Osteichthyes; Dipnoi; Fin System; Scales; Air-bladder or Swim-bladder; Accessary respiratory organs; Parental care; Migration; and Economic importance.
