This textbook has been designed to meet the needs of B.Sc. (Hons.) Third Semester students of Zoology as per the new UGC Model Curriculum - Choice Based Credit System (CBCS). Comprehensively written, it explains the essential principles, processes and methodology of Chordata, Physiology and Biochemistry. This textbook is profusely illustrated with well-drawn labelled diagrams, not only to supplement the descriptions, but also for sound understanding of the concepts.

The subject matter is profusely illustrated with a number of clear and labelled diagrams. We sincerely feel that this book will fulfill the requirements of the students as well as teachers. While preparing this book several standard reference books and text books have been consulted. Emphasis has been laid on furnishing maximum information required for students in a simple and lucid language. Zoology is an interesting subject because the animal world is full of diversity, adaptations, habits and habitats and behaviour.

The present book is for B.Sc(I) yr, strictly based on UGC Model syllabus for all Indian Universities. Each unit or chapter as the case may be is followed by various types of questions, such as very short, short, long answer questions, digrammatic questions and multiple choice questions, asked repeatedly questions have been included.

This textbook has been designed to meet the needs of B.Sc. First Semester students of Chemistry as per the new UGC Model Curriculum - Choice Based Credit System (CBCS). With its traditional approach to the subject, this textbook lucidly explains principles of chemistry. Important topics such as atomic structure, chemical bonding, molecular structure, fundamentals of organic chemistry, stereochemistry and aliphatic hydrocarbons are aptly discussed to give an overview of inorganic and organic chemistry. Laboratory work has also been included to help students achieve solid conceptual understanding and learn experimental procedures.

This textbook has been designed to meet the needs of B.Sc. (Hons.) Fourth Semester students of Zoology as per the UGC Choice Based Credit System (CBCS). Comprehensively written, it explains the essential principles, processes and methodology of Comparative Anatomy of Vertebrates, Animal Physiology: Life Sustaining Systems and Biochemistry of Metabolic Processes. This textbook is profusely illustrated with over 550 well-labelled diagrams, not only to supplement the descriptions, but also for sound understanding of the concepts.

An outgrowth of more than three decades of classroom teaching experience, this book provides a comprehensive treatment of the subject. It comprises three parts; Inorganic, Organic and Physical Chemistry. Illustrations and diagrams are provided to help students in understanding the chemical structures and reactions. This book will meet the requirements of undergraduate students of B.Sc. First Year of all Indian universities.

The unique feature of this book's first edition was the presentation of a unified approach to the molecular biology of prokaryotes and eukaryotes. The success of this approach, and its continuation, is the result of a long string of discoveries showing similarities in solutions to biological problems that often extend across many or even all species. A six-part organization covers genes, proteins, gene expression, DNA, the nucleus, and cells. For individuals in the science community interested in genetics.

Principles of Animal Physiology, Second Edition continues to set a new standard for animal physiology textbooks with its focus on animal diversity, its modern approach and clear foundation in molecular and cell biology, its concrete examples throughout, and its fully integrated coverage of the endocrine system. Carefully designed, full-color artwork guides students through complex systems and processes while in-text pedagogical tools help them learn and remember the material. The book includes the most up-to-date research on animal genetics and genomics, methods and models, and offers a diverse range of vertebrate and invertebrate examples, with a student-friendly writing style that is consistently clear and engaging. Christopher Moyes and Patricia Schulte present animal physiology in a current, balanced, and accessible way that emphasizes the integration of physiological systems, an overarching evolutionary theme, and thorough coverage of the cellular and molecular basis of animal physiology. Principles of Animal Physiology comes with a comprehensive supplements package for students and instructors that includes a new Media Manager CD-ROM, a new Print and Computerized Test Bank, and a powerful Companion Website. The InterActive Physiology® 10-System Suite CD-ROM and PhysioEx® V7.0 laboratory simulations can be packaged with the text at a discounted price.

Experimental Biochemistry provides comprehensive coverage of important techniques used in contemporary biochemical research and gives students the background theory they need to understand the nature of the experiments.
