Book excerpt: Zoology is a subfield of biology that focuses on the study of different species within the animal kingdom as well as animal life in general. Both the study of individual animals and their component components, down to the molecular level, as well as the study of animal populations, whole faunas, and the interactions of animals with one another, plants, and the nonliving environment, are included in this field of study. The conceptual integration that has taken place in the contemporary study of living things over the past few years has placed more of an emphasis on the structural and functional unity of life rather than on the diversity of life. Although this wide range of studies does result in some specialities within zoology being isolated from one another. The term "fauna" refers to all of the many kinds of animal species that inhabit a certain area at a particular period. Flora is the word used to refer to plant life, whereas funga is the word used to refer to fungal life. The term "biota" refers to all kinds of life, including flora, fauna, funga, and any other forms of life. The term "fauna" is used by zoologists and palaeontologists to refer to the usual collection of creatures that may be found in a certain period or location. For example, "Sonoran Desert fauna" or "Burgess Shale fauna" are both examples of this term. Palaeontologists will often speak of a succession of faunal stages, which is a series of rocks that all contain the same kinds of fossils at the same period. The field of study known as faunistic examines creatures native to a given area. The distribution of animals on earth may be broken down into three categories: land, water, and time. The first two categories are dispersed in space, while the third category is distributed in time. Many things regarding the animals, their distribution and so many other things are discussed in detail across the many chapters and topics that are included in this book. The author of this book decided to include the material that is presently contained inside it after doing a significant amount of research on the topic. All of the content that is included in this book was supplied by the authors of the book after they had a substantial amount of discussion on the topics presented. The reader will be able to get a deeper comprehension of each of the chapters thanks to the wealth of information that is provided in this book.

Book excerpt: Since ecological systems are so intricately designed, it is not unexpected that many ecological ideas and concepts have not yet been defined exactly. The scientific method as applied to the study of nature is where ecology gets its start. Ecology is a typically bottom up discipline, meaning that it applies the scientific method to actual facts and processes in order to gradually build a body of knowledge which may give the foundation for useful generalizations. This is in contrast to a discipline who's experimental practice is guided by laws as well as invincible paradigms. However, the necessity to account for all conceivable differences clashes with the generalizability of ecological processes. In this context, the precision of findings obtained via the analysis of real situations becomes crucial. In particular, we need to apply a more scientifically rigorous technique to the study of animal ecology. Animal populations are dynamic in space, subject to significant environmental variation, characterized by a robust stochastic demographic component, engaged in intricate interspecific & intraspecific interactions as well as relationships with abiotic environment. That's why it's taken longer to apply scientific methods & rigorous designs for experiments to them than it has to other scientific pursuits. Nonetheless, there is no clear reason to research animal populations without more discipline.

This book was released on 2022-11-08 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Zoology: Animal Distribution, Biologicals and Development are the study of animals and the animal world that is a subset of biology. Animal biology is another name for this field. Zoology is the study of animals and their habitats. This covers things like how animals are categorised, how they behave, how they are built, how they develop, where they live, how they evolved, and even which ones have since been extinct. The study of animals or zoology is a subfield of biology. It's the branch of science that deals with animals as a whole. Animal physiology, animal behaviour, and animal interactions with other species are all part of zoology's scope of the study. This massive course covers the global distribution of every known animal species, both living and extinct. The discipline of zoology delves into uncharted territories of study in addition to the study of animals and their ecosystems. In this book, we learn Aristotle’s system of categorization was used until the Age of Enlightenment in the 16th century when scientists started conducting serious investigations. The field of zoology has grown more intricate, with organisms now classified into five iv "kingdoms," with the animal kingdom subdivided into the Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, and Species.

Download or read book Zoology Principles and Concepts written by Simon Benson and published by . This book was released on 2019-06-10 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Zoology is a branch of biology that studies the animal kingdom. This encompasses the study of structure, classification, embryology, habit and distribution of animals, whether extinct or living, and their interactions with their environment. Structural studies in zoology are approached from the domains of cell biology and anatomy. This enables the study of unicellular and multicellular organisms from the perspective of the structure and function of cells, organs and organ systems. Physiology studies how the different structures of a living organism function as a whole. The origin and descent of species, and their change over time is tackled in evolutionary biology. The grouping and categorization of organisms based on their genus or species allows ease of study and research and is known as scientific classification. It is considered an important aspect of zoology. This book discusses the fundamentals as well as modern approaches of zoology. It unravels the recent studies in this field. It will prove to be immensely beneficial to students and researchers in this field.
