Obsah přednášek:
- Origin and evolution of animals: Cells and tissues of multicellular animals, basic anatomy, epithelial layers, body cavities.
- Animal evolution: "Radiata", basal diversification of Bilateria, Deuterostomia, Platyzoa; Lophotrochozoa, Ecdysozoa; Arthropoda; Chordata: Urochordata, Cephalochordata, aquatic vertebrates; Tetrapoda.
- Ecological part: daptations: movement, food, defence; Vertebrate adaptations: movement, food, defence.
- Animal ecophysiology: cold-warm-blooded animals, respiration, osmoregulation, water balance climatic limits,adaptations, migration; reproduction, reproductive organs, strategies, progeny investment, mate choice.
- Intra- and interspecific relationships, parasitism, symbiosis, mimicry.
- Regional biogeography: historical geography, biomes, zoogeographical regions, conservation; Regional biogeography and ecology - Europe: historical geography, biomes, fauna, introduced species, conservation, Central Europe: fauna (origin, ecology, distribution and its changes), important places, protected areas, conservation (causes of threads, conservation actions, habitat protection, environmental organisations and activities).
- Gametogenesis, fertilisation, embryogenesis, cell differentiation, development of organs in the arthropods and vertebrates; Postembryonic development, types of larvae, metamorphosis, reproduction, hormonal control of reproduction and growth.
- Evolution of genome, cytogenetics, relationships between genes, evolution and onthogeny (Hox genes, etc.).
- Food intake and digestion; energetic metabolism and its regulation, thermoregulation, ecophysiological adaptations, dormancy.
- Locomotion, skeleton and muscles; respiration, circulation, excretion, osmoregulation;
- Evolution of nervous system and sensory organs, communication, pheromones, vertebrate immunity.
- Model species of the animals for experimental research - what they really say about animal kingdom.
