Animal Biology

Animal biology is the study of the structure, function, growth, development, and evolution of animals. It covers a wide range of topics from the cellular level up to the level of ecosystems, and can be divided into several subdisciplines. Animal biologists use a variety of techniques to study animals, including anatomy, physiology, histology, embryology, developmental biology, behavioral ecology, and evolutionary biology.

Animal biology is a rapidly growing field, and new discoveries are made constantly. In recent years, there have been major advances in our understanding of the genes and Molucular pathways underlying animal development and behavior. There is also an increasing focus on applying what we know about animal biology to solve problems in human health and conservation.
