What is Zoology today?

The remainder of the 19th century was effectively an ideological war between the old guard (religionists and scientists who felt the evidence for Darwinian evolution was not strong enough at the time) and the Darwinists who were eager to build on the work (16, p1). But the war would soon be over at least as far as the academic community was concerned. Researchers began developing new methods and sciences in broad areas ranging from genetics to geology, from ecology to botany, zoology and human anatomy and many more. Microbiology had implications for human health, and for botany and zoology. The nature of zoology from the 20th century and beyond is about relationships. It became a profession in the early part of the last century at a time when natural history and essentialism (function and form) gave way to experimentation. The following decades would see the arrival of intensive farming, fueled partly by developments in both zoology and botany. But more academic pursuits included microbiology and eventually embryology, particularly for animal and human health (16, p2). When Gregor Mendel discovered the gene (17), zoology and biology took on its modern form.

Zoology has changed overtime and has gave way to experiment. It shows the animal kingdom, different kinds of structure, habitats and the classification of the animal, insects, and other organisms such as humans. A zoo obviously means there has animals of some kind and logy is the study of living organisms.
