General zoology WB-BI-11-03lab
The aim of the course is to teach students the basic knowledge of morphology, anatomy and selected aspects of physiology of various groups of animals, as well as basic techniques and research methods used in zoology. The aim of the classes is for the students to acquire practical skills in the application of learned research techniques and methods of zoology, as well as the ability to search and select sources of knowledge in zoology, critically evaluate the information contained in these sources, and briefly present the knowledge learned
