Abstract :
In the current study, the fresh water fish Liza Abu exposed to sub- lethal concentration of (0,0.02,0.04,0.08) mg /L of Chlorpyrifos pesticides for a period 15 days of exposure to investigate the toxic effect of the pesticide on fish organs included gills and muscles. Observed through the histological sections that there were different levels of degeneration of cells .In the gills hyperplasia , Necrosis and the hemorrhage in gill arches , clubbing shapes and degeneration of secondary lamellae . The muscles changes were degeneration with focal area of necrosis, different size of muscle fiber, splitting of muscle bundles and vacuoles. These hazards became severe with increasing concentrations and exposure time.
