Abstract :

Like other concept inventories in different subjects, Biology Concept Inventory has the same purpose. It is used to assess the understanding of biology concepts. Biology is a diverse field and it is very difficult to locate the core area of the subject.Klymkowsky and Garvin-Doxas (www.bioliteracy.net ) (2008) have developed Biology Concept Inventory to test the common concept of undergraduate biology. We have used this Biology Concept Inventory to assess the concept of biology of post graduate Zoology and Botany students and tried to find out whether their conception differs significantly or not. In this paper we have also discussed if there is any significant difference in the conception of biology between male and female post graduate Zoology and Botany students.
