Overview

Save Big on Coursera Plus. 7,000+ courses at $160 off. Limited Time Only!
Explore a comprehensive course on ethology, animal behavior, and neurophysiology designed for M.Sc., B.Sc., CSIR-NET, and NEET exams. Delve into the foundations of ethology as a branch of biology, examining its history, scope, and key questions. Investigate animal perception of the environment, including visual, auditory, olfactory, and other sensory mechanisms. Study the hormonal and neural control of behavior, exploring ethoendocrinology and neuroethology. Examine the role of genetics in behavior development through ethogenetics. Learn about biological rhythms and chronobiology. Analyze various types of animal behavior, including innate and learned behaviors, motivation, and ecological aspects. Explore animal communication methods and reproductive behaviors across different species. Investigate social behaviors, parental care, and migration patterns. Gain insights into the biological clock in both animals and plants, understanding different types of rhythms and their significance.
