F. Students can learn physiological response to environmental lighting condition (Prof. Yasuo)E. Students can learn stress in animal production (Prof. Furuse)

1. (4/8). Prof Oshima: Introduction of course.

8-10. (6/17, 6/24, 7/1), Prof. Nakano, Takahashi :Animal physiology, reproduction, behavior and growth are affected by various factors inenvironment. Meanwhile animals, especially livestock give many kinds of impact or load to environment through the process of production. Inthis lecture, the relationship between animal and environment will be considered from various aspects.

A. Students can learn pollution in marine ecosystem . (Prof.Oshima)

This course is designed to let students be understand the environment and ecosystem for animal production.

4-5: (5/13, 5/20), Prof. Yasuo: Day-night cycle or seasonal changes in photoperiod greatly affect the animal reproduction and metabolism onthe basis of biological clock. Students wil learn what are the biological clock, and how animals respond to environmental lighting condition to6,7,11. (5/27, 6/3, 6/10), Prof Mochioka: The reproductive strategies (behavioral, developmental and physiological adaptations) in fish will belectured.

After the introductory orientation, students visit the laboratories (either Group 1 or Group 2 of their choice) onthe weekly basis. In their 15 minutes lab visit, students are provided the information of the laboratory by the representativeof the lab (either professor orgraduate student), followed by a Q & A session. They may be allowed to observe the lab facilities as well. This laboratoryrotation will form the basis for their choice of three laboratories that they will visit monthly for Laboratory Rotation I in thefollowing semester.

Students will be expected to learn the basic theoryabout Newtonian mechanics, hydraulics, and soil engineering through various experiments.Physics of force and motion experiment will offer some experimental techniques to understand physical phenomenon related to strain-stress and rigid-body motion and its theorywe actually experience in our daily life.Hydraulics experiment will give the opportunities to conduct hydraulic model experiments related to the water environment in agricultural land. Students will be expected tounderstand the basic theory of hydraulic phenomenon and to learn the basic technique of hydraulic measurement.Basic soil engineering experiment will offer some experimental techniques to determine the basic soil properties indispensable to design and construction in geoengineering.All personnel are required to have a complete understanding of the procedures in this class.Also, all are required to have a cooperative activity through the group works in this class.
