Diversity and  Evolution of 

Non-Chordates  I:

(Protists to Pseudocoelom ates)

 Practical

CO:7 Analyze protist diversity and reproductive strategies, focusing on Amoeba and Paramecium, including binary fission and conjugation,ecological diversity by examining pond water samples, identifying species based on morphology and niche adaptation.

CO:8 Compare anatomical structures and ecological roles of sponge species like Sycon, Hyalonema, Euplectella, and Spongilla, noting habitat adaptations.

CO:9 Investigate marine cnidarian morphology, life cycles, and ecological roles of species like Obelia, Physalia, Aurelia, and Corallium, highlighting ecosystem contributions.

CO:10 Analyze helminth morphology, life cycles, and parasitic adaptations of Fasciola hepatica, Taenia solium, and Ascaris lumbricoides using slide examination and microphotographs

CO:11 Demonstrate skills and record the concepts in the form of  practical file and reflect on personal learning experiences and experimental outcomes during viva voce.

CO:12 Contribute effectively in course-specific interaction
