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.

Download or read book 30 Second Zoology written by Mark Fellowes and published by Ivy Press. This book was released on 2020-03-03 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Endowed with abundant water, extraordinary ecoystems, varied climates and biomes, our planet is teeming with creatures, great and small. What produced this rich diversity? How have so many species formed, evolved and adapted? What effects are humans having on the rest of the animal kingdom and on the natural environment we share? 30-Second Zoology explains the diversification process of evolution, then introduces the main groups of invertebrates and vertebrates. Breathing, seeing, communicating and other key features of animal physiology and behaviour are explored, as are the ecological relationships between Earth’s myriad species – the predators, the prey, the parasites and the positively poisonous – before assessing the anthropogenic effects of pollution, over-harvesting and a changing climate. Covering everything from the origins of life and the most basic of organisms, all the way through to the more complex creatures that we recognise today, 30-Second Zoology aims to showcase the most fantastic examples of life on our earth, all in 300 words and one stunning illustration per topic.

Book excerpt: DISCOVER HOW LIFE REALLY WORKS - ON EARTH AND IN SPACE 'A wonderfully insightful sidelong look at Earthly biology' Richard Dawkins 'Crawls with curious facts' Sunday Times _________________________ We are unprepared for the greatest discovery of modern science. Scientists are confident that there is alien life across the universe yet we have not moved beyond our perception of 'aliens' as Hollywood stereotypes. The time has come to abandon our fixation on alien monsters and place our expectations on solid scientific footing. Using his own expert understanding of life on Earth and Darwin's theory of evolution - which applies throughout the universe - Cambridge zoologist Dr Arik Kershenbaum explains what alien life must be like. This is the story of how life really works, on Earth and in space. _________________________ 'An entertaining, eye-opening and, above all, a hopeful view of what - or who - might be out there in the cosmos' Philip Ball, author of Nature's Patterns 'A fascinating insight into the deepest of questions: what might an alien actually look like' Lewis Dartnell, author of Origins 'If you don't want to be surprised by extraterrestrial life, look no further than this lively overview of the laws of evolution that have produced life on earth' Frans de Waal, author of Mama's Last Hug
