a) General:
• To promote scientific curiosity, instilling the wish to know, to research and to understand the animal world and its functioning.
• To accustom students to the handling of bibliographic sources.
• To have a base of terminology and elementary zoological and physiological notions.
• To know the elemental techniques of zoological and physiological study.
• To know the different models of animal organization basing on the morphology and biology of the different groups.
• To understand that the current animal diversification is consequence of the evolutionary process.
b) Specific:
• To know the different taxons of agrarian interest, above all those that can cause, or control pests or they can be exploited, or those that can need protection and conservation.
• To know the physiology of these groups with the purpose of being able to handle them to obtain the best results.
• To analyse the phenomena of evolutionary convergence and divergence of functional systems as adaptation response to continuous environmental changes.
• To know the interspecific relationships that can condition the different species, as well as their environmental characteristics. - To instil notions for the conservation of diversity in agrarian ecosystems.
The contents to be developed within this area are about the anatomy and physiology of the main zoological groups of agrarian interest and some applied aspects of these animal groups: heliciculture, apiculture, lumbriculture and importance in agricultural production.
The agenda for achieving these contents is as follows:

SCENARIO 1
The theoretical classes (participatory master classes) will take place during the second semester, according to the schedule approved by the center, and the material used in each theory class will be previously available to students on the virtual platform. These classes will consist of the explanation of the contents of the subject, by the teaching staff, using the waxing and the audiovisual media (computer presentations).
Interactive teaching (seminars and laboratory practices)
The seminars are complementary activities on applied aspects that will be taught by the teaching staff.
The laboratory practices will serve to illustrate the theoretical contents of the subject and will be oriented fundamentally to the students acquiring practical skills and experience; This teaching will unfold as follows:
- Brief introduction by the teacher.
- Carrying out the practice by the students, following the guidelines set by a script, under the supervision and supervision of the teacher.
All the tasks carried out by the students (autonomous and independent work, preparation and presentation of course work, group work and cooperative learning, reading) will be guided by the academic staff in the tutoring sessions.
USC-virtual:
- The tools available in the virtual USC will be used to provide students with the necessary material for the development of the subject (presentations, notes, supporting texts, bibliography, etc.) and to establish fluent communication with the teacher.

ORIGINALITY OF THE WORK SUBMITTED
"In cases of fraudulent performance of exercises or tests, the provisions of the" Regulations for the evaluation of student academic performance and the review of grades will apply.
In preparing the work carried out during the course, certain rules must be followed:
Any literal quotation of text and / or figures taken from a book, a reprint or from a web page must be correctly referenced. Otherwise, it will be considered that plagiarism is being carried out (action and effect of copying substantially other people's works, giving them as their own).
It will also be considered plagiarism if the copy is made by another partner, or a work written by another person is presented, posing as its author.
The detection of any of these forms of plagiarism will mean that such work is not taken into account and must be redone. In addition, if the plagiarism is repeated, it will mean the absence of the corresponding grade in the final grade of the subject.
