Laboratory Exercises in Zoology serves as a teaching aid for students studying for Advanced level Zoology or Biology. This book provides exercises concerned mainly with physiology and some dissection techniques. Organized into 12 parts, this book begins with an overview of diffusion of molecules or ions from a region of high concentration to a region of relatively low concentration. This text then discusses the breakdown of complex molecules, which is achieved by a series of hydrolyses catalyzed by the digestive enzymes produced by the glandular cells of the digestive system. Other chapters consider the various stages involved in making permanent stained preparations. This book discusses as well the requirements for animals in the laboratory. The final chapter deals with the rate of growth of an organism. This book is a valuable resource for students studying zoology and biology. Teachers and biology laboratory technicians will also find this book extremely useful.

The cost of textbooks and laboratory support materials has skyrocketed over the past few decades. A new copy of a laboratory manual in invertebrate zoology published by a textbook company can now cost over $100/copy. In my opinion this is just too expensive, especially when such a lab manual may be woefully out of date. That's why I developed a set of exercises several years ago to support my course in invertebrate zoology. When I learned about the CreateSpace self-publishing service I decided to make these exercises more broadly available (1st edition, 2013). In the meantime I solicited feedback from users and worked to review and update materials in these exercises in light of recent developments in the field.The 3rd Edition of Invertebrates by Brusca, et al. was released in winter 2016 and I decided to update all taxonomies and related material in the second edition of this set of laboratory exercises to conform with information in that textbook.This new edition includes a significant changes and improvements in many areas including the following:1) 82 pages of new material 2) 71 new figures (169 figures total)3) 46 links to supplemental video material on the anatomy or behavior of invertebrates4) A glossary of terms at the end of each chapter5) Updated and expanded taxonomic information for all groups following Invertebrates, 3rd Ed, by Brusca, et al., (2016) 6) Tables listing defining characteristics for major taxa are included in each chapter7) Inclusion of word roots/word meanings for many taxonomic names8) A taxonomic index replaces the cumbersome index of the 1st edition 9) Addition of a procedure for calibrating and using an ocular micrometer to the chapter on microscopy10) Replacement of the old overly complicated exercise on cladistics with a new streamlined exercise11) Addition of an entirely new chapter on Domain Eukarya including life cycles of pathogens. This chapter includes an introduction to Group Amoebozoa, Group Chromalveolata, Group Rhizaria, Group Excavata and Group Opisthokonta12) Addition or expansion of exercises on corals and siphonophores to the chapter on Cnidarians13) Addition of Phylum Ctenophora to the lab manual14) Addition of a larger number of nematode representatives, including Tubatrix and the pathogens Trichinella, Wuchereria, Enterobius, Dracunculus and Dirofilaria including their life cycles to the chapter on Phylum Nematoda 15) Addition of tardigrades, onychophorans and pycnogonids to the chapter on Panarthropoda17) New and expanded material on arachnids and myriapods in the chapter on Panarthropoda16) Addition of ophiuroids to the chapter on echinoderms.And, the price is still set with students in mind at only $20/copy for a hard copy version and even less for a Kindle version.
