Hii,

It depends on what your syllabus is. As you have not mentioned the syllabus in question’s details, i would just speculate about the syllabus and hence would recommend specific books for them.

Note: this is for BSc in Zoology only.

Invertebrtes: R.L. Kotpal or P.S Verma (Both are equally good)

Vertebrates: R.L Kotpal (You can also buy P.S Verma if Kotpal is not available)

Ethology(Animal behaviour): V.K Aggarwal(S.chand)

Ecology: PD Sharma

Evolulion: Vir Bala Rastogi

OR

Buy a book of P.S Verma called ‘Cell Biology, Genetics, molecular biology, Evolution and Ecology’. It is a single book which will cover all the topics which it mentions (for undergraduate students).

If any other topic is in your syllabus, do let me know.

For more details about these books, ask me in comments. Thank you!

Hi,

Honours subject usually have 2 general subjects alongwith them. However if you want to know out of zoology hons. and zoology general, which is more preferable for future job opportunities, then the former is better. If you wish to pursue higher studies and want to be a professor or a teacher or pursue PhD., then having an honours is must. Also there are certain jobs in government sector which requires you to possess an honours degree certificate. But this does not mean that there is no job opportunities for the zoology general candidates. So in both way, if you obtain good scores you will definitely get a job in future.

• Minimum marks

• Nationality

• Minimum educational qualification

• Passing Year

Eligibility for BHU PET is candidate should have studied B.Sc. (Hons.)/ B.Sc. Under 10 + 2 + 3 pattern with minimum 50% aggregate, there is no requirement for SC/ ST candidates to score any minimum percentage in the qualifying exams as they are only required to have passed the qualifying exams and appeared for BHU PET ,for OBC candidates, there is a relaxation of 5% in the minimum aggregate to be secured in qualifying exams.

For MSc Botany, candidate must have studied chemistry at graduation level

The roots of seed plants have three major functions: anchoring the plant to the soil, absorbing water and minerals and transporting them upwards, and storing the products of photosynthesis. Some roots are modified to absorb moisture and exchange gases. Most roots are underground. Some plants, however, also have adventitious roots, which emerge above the ground from the shoot.

Types of Root Systems

Root systems are mainly of two types Dicots have a tap root system, while monocots have a fibrous root system. A tap root system has a main root that grows down vertically, and from which many smaller lateral roots arise. Dandelions are a good example; their tap roots usually break off when trying to pull these weeds, and they can regrow another shoot from the remaining root). A tap root system penetrates deep into the soil. In contrast, a fibrous root system is located closer to the soil surface, and forms a dense network of roots that also helps prevent soil erosion (lawn grasses are a good example, as are wheat, rice, and corn). Some plants have a combination of tap roots and fibrous roots. Plants that grow in dry areas often have deep root systems, whereas plants growing in areas with abundant water are likely to have shallower root systems.

Top photo shows carrots, which are thick tap roots that have thin lateral roots extending from them. Bottom photo shows grasses with a fibrous root system beneath the soil.

Hope you find it helpful

let me know in the comment box if you are having any further doubts

thanks

Good Luck!
