Summary: | Varanus salvator is a reptile animal that is often being hunted by humans
for various purposes. The hunting of water monitor is free to do until now, and
one day can be threaten the extinction of the population if it done without the
preservation of conservation. Knowledge of the reproductive system of water
monitor is needed as the base for conservation. The objective of this research was
to find out about the histology of cartilage in hemipenis of male Varanus salvator
or commonly known as water monitor based on the measurement with Snout Vent
Length (SVL). Sampling was done randomly and used hemipenis organs from 18
water monitor which divided into two groups: water monitor with SVL> 40 cm,
and water monitor with SVL <40 cm and seen histologically in the cartilage part
on gland hemipenis. The object calculated is the area of chondrocyte cells in
cartilage. The cartilage on water monitor’s hemipenis has been known as
Hemibaculum and it is composed by hyaline cartilage and fibrous cartilage. The
observation on the microscope used one slice organ for each micros slide sample.
Data analysis using Simple Regression Linear test, and the result of this test is the
changes in the area of chondrocyte cells are caused by the changes in SVL. |
