Course content broken down in detail by weekly class schedule (syllabus) Compilation and deeper understanding of the knowledge gained through the undergraduate and other graduate zoology courses. Comparative and critical overview of anatomical and functional features of organic systems with knew knowledge on evolutionary processes behind them. Zoology. Outcomes are knowledge and concepts important for understanding morphology, systematics, phylogeny and evolution of animals. Special emphasis is given to comparison of different organic systems and their development in different animal groups. Gained knowledge is fundamental and essential for easier understanding and following other more complex biological courses in their further study. - Knowledge on the basics of animal kingdom contemporary systematic - Understanding of animals’ organic system structure and function - Understanding of animals’ organs and organic systems structure and functions development in evolutionary context 1. Introductory. Functional and structural characteristics of animal organisms, basic concept of anatomy and morphology of animals, evolution and mechanisms of evolution, phylogeny, hypothesis on the origin of Metasoa. 2. Organic systems and the role of their morphological and physiological features in modern systematics. Impact of the development of organic systems on animal’s metabolism. 3. Evolution of body cavities (primary and secondary body cavity), and their function in animals. Extracellular matrix. 1 F FORM FORM 7 Evaluation of university study programmes of undergraduate, graduate and integrated undergraduate and graduate studies, and vocational studies DESCRIPTION OF CHANGES AND ADDITIONS TO UNDERGRADUATE, GRADUATE AND INTEGRATED UNDERGRADUATE AND GRADUATE STUDY PROGRAMMES 4.
