    Environmental impurities effectively served as bio-indicators of pollution have generally used to assess the quality of the aquatic zone. The present study investigated zebrafish fenvalerate exposure to a range (20 μg/L-100 μg/L) was made. In the 24th  h of exposure at 20 μg/L, 55% mortality was observed. After 96th h, 82% death was obtained. In 40 μg/L, 62% mortality was registered after 24 h and further increased to 94% after 96 h of exposure. At 60 μg/L, 71% mortality was noted initially and it raised 99% at the 96th hour of the trial. In 80 μg/L the mortality rate ranged from 79% to 100%. Finally, in 72 h and 96 h, all fishes died and registered 100% mortality in 80 μg/L and 100 μg/L of fenvalerate concentration. The sub-lethal concentration induced biochemical changes whi..
