A Course In Vertebrate Zoology - Henry Sherring Pratt - Bog

A Course In Vertebrate Zoology is a comprehensive guide to the dissection and comparative study of vertebrate animals. Written by Henry Sherring Pratt, this book is designed to provide students with a thorough understanding of the anatomy, physiology, and behavior of vertebrates. The book covers a wide range of topics, including the evolution of vertebrates, the structure and function of their organs and systems, and their ecological roles in the natural world. The book is divided into several chapters, each focusing on a different group of vertebrates, including fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals. Each chapter begins with an overview of the group's characteristics and evolutionary history, followed by detailed instructions for the dissection of representative species. The dissection instructions are accompanied by clear, detailed illustrations and photographs, making it easy for students to follow along. In addition to the dissection instructions, the book also includes information on the comparative anatomy and physiology of each group of vertebrates. This allows students to compare and contrast the different structures and functions of vertebrate organs and systems, and gain a deeper understanding of how they have evolved over time. Overall, A Course In Vertebrate Zoology is an essential resource for students of biology, zoology, and related fields. Its clear, concise writing style and detailed illustrations make it easy for students to understand complex concepts, while its comprehensive coverage of vertebrate anatomy and physiology provides a solid foundation for further study.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
