PRACTICAL VII
1. Genetic problems:
Monohybrid inheritance – 1 plant and 1 animal (Drosophila examples).
Dihybrid inheritance – 1 plant and 1 animal (Drosophila)examples. 2. Complementary genes – Flower color in sweet peas.
Epistatic (inhibitory) genes – plumage color in fowls
Supplementary genes – Plumage color in fowls.
Multiple genes – skin color in man. 3. Multiple alleles – ABO blood group in humans (2 problems).
Sex linked inheritance in Drosophila (2) and humans(2). 4. Chromosomal abnormalities in humans- Turner’s Klinefelter’s and Down’s syndromes(
chromosomal complements and photos. 5. Construction of 3-point test cross linkage map (2 problems). 6. General morphology of Drosophila and mounting of sex comb and wing. 7. Identification of wild (male and female) Drosophila. 8. Identification of different types of drosophila mutants – white eye, bar eye, sepia eye, vestigial
wing and yellow body. 9. Calculation of allele frequency- PTC, tongue rolling, attached ear lobes in human. 10. Calculation of allele frequency – ABO blood group in humans.

11. Homologous organs – serial homology in crustacean – Appendages of Prawn. 12. Homologous organs – Mouth parts of insects and forelimbs of vertebrates. 13. Study of aquatic adaptations – Shark and turtle.
Study of arboreal adaptations – Chameleon, Loris 14. Study of Volant adaptations – Dragonfly, Pigeon, Bat, Exocoetus and Draco.
PRACTICAL VIII

Estimation of nitrate content in two water samples. 4. Estimation of Phosphate content in two water samples.
Estimation of Hardness of two water samples. 5. Study of pond ecosystem – interaction between the various constituents, planktons, fauna and
flora. 6. Study of garden soil fauna, using Berlesse funnel apparatus. 7. Animal associations: Mutualism – Termite and Trichonympha, Commensalism – Echeneis and
Shark, Proto-Cooperation – Hermit crab and Sea anemone. 8. Animal associations : Parasitism – Head louse, Bed bug, Female mosquito, Ticks and Mites,
Predation – Snake and Frog. 9. Collection of data such as height, weight, blood groups etc. among the students and 10. Calculation – Mean, standard deviation and erors, calculating of Chi-square values. Construction
of graph, histograms and bar diagrams using data obtained. (A minimum of two data for each of statistical calculations)
11. Demonstration of vermiculture in the laboratory or college campus. 12. Morphology and life history of Bombyxmori.Observation of Mulberry and Non mulberry cocoons. 13. Identification and uses of different equipment in silkworm rearing. 14. Identification of different local food fishes (any five).
