The "Competency Based Questions on Biology of Reproduction" serves as a comprehensive resource tailored to meet the needs of both students and educators in the fields of Zoology, Biology, Physiology, Bio-medical and Biochemistry, Medicine, and Veterinary Sciences. With a student and teacher-friendly approach, this book comprises approximately 1500 objective type questions, along with representative questions mirroring exam patterns.

Structured to facilitate self-testing and exam preparation, the book aligns with the question paper formats of prominent universities such as the University of Delhi and other institutions. Emphasizing a compulsory objective type question format often carrying significant weightage in exams, the book equips students with essential skills to tackle diverse question types including definitions, differentiations, true/false statements, one- word answers, fill-in-the-blanks, abbreviation expansions, and matching exercises.

Beyond objective questions, representative questions aid in swift subject revision before examinations. Designed in line with the "Text Book on Biology of Reproduction," this resource comprises twenty-six chapters grouped into five units, covering a broad spectrum of topics essential for understanding reproductive biology.

Units span reproductive endocrinology, biology of reproduction, anatomy and physiology of male and female reproductive systems, reproductive health, human welfare, and animal husbandry. Each unit delves into specific aspects, providing in-depth coverage through meticulously crafted questions.

This book is indispensable for undergraduates, postgraduates, and aspirants preparing for entrance examinations like NEET, as well as university and college exams. By consolidating essential concepts and offering extensive question sets, it serves as a vital tool for mastering the intricacies of reproductive biology. Additionally, it includes a section featuring important questions and answers for quick reference, enhancing its utility as a comprehensive study aid.

Dr. Gayatri Prakash combined an investigative nature of a research scientist with the zeal and soul of an
experienced and caring teacher. She earned her M.Sc. in Zoology and Ph.D. in Reproductive Biology from
the University of Delhi in 1970 and 1975 respectively. During her Post Graduation she won the National
Scholarship and secured 2nd position in the university.
Dr. Prakash published numerous research articles on male reproductive systems. Her 42 years of
teaching included general zoology courses and specialized course on Biology of Reproduction to
undergraduate students at Daulat Ram College and postgraduate students at the Ambedkar Center of
Bio- medical Research of the University of Delhi. Besides teaching, she did Post-doctoral research work
at the University of Graz, Austria, University of Florence, Italy and University of Poona, India. Another
book authored by her is Lab Manual on Blood Analysis and Medical Diagnostics in 2011 for B.Sc. Zoology
students.
