Course Goal / Objective

Behavior is the form of movement that occurs in living things instinctively or against various stimuli in the living environment. By making use of these forms of action, we establish a relationship with them and approach them. In this course, it is aimed to teach the students who will do academic studies in the field of entomology by learning insect behaviors and preventing, stimulating, eliminating, changing the direction of some orientation movements that are vital for insects, which are very economical and practical for breeders and can control many insects.

Course Content

The course content consists of many different behavior patterns of insects such as color orientation, egg laying, migration, sound, reaction to light and their reasons.
