Zoology

Exam Materials

Course Introduction

Zoology is the scientific study of animals, encompassing their classification, physiology, development, behavior, evolution, and ecological interactions. This course explores animal diversity, from invertebrates to vertebrates, examining their anatomical structures, life processes, adaptative strategies, and roles within ecosystems. Students will also investigate current zoological research, issues in animal conservation, and advances in understanding animal behavior and genetics, equipping them with a foundational knowledge of animal biology and the methods used in zoological studies.
