Zoology is the branch of biology that studies the structure, function, behavior, and evolution of animals. This science include comparative anatomy, animal psychology, molecular biology, ethology, behavioral ecology, evolutionary biology, taxonomy, and paleontology. Scientific study zoology began around the 16th century.Table of contents

[Edit] History! Main article: History of zoology
Humans have been fascinated by other members of the animal kingdom throughout history. In Europe the beginning, they gather and catalog descriptions of strange animals from distant lands or deep sea, as noted in the Physiologus and the works of Albertus Magnus. His work is largely based on the writings of Aristotle (384-322 BC). Magnus' De animalibus Libri XXVI is not just the volume of comments about Natural History, but it remains one of the most extensive observational study of zoology published before modern times [2] study zoology discipline as well. Found roots in Arabic and Chinese. Arab scholar Al-Jahizz (781-868) wrote the Book of Animals. Two major Chinese writers in this field is Su Song (1020-1101) and Shen Kuo (1031-1095) during the Song Dynasty, but there are many others. In Roman times, the lead author on natural history is Pliny the Elder (23-79).
Scientific zoology really started in the 16th century with the rise of a new spirit of observation and exploration, but for a long time to run a separate course is not affected by the progress of medical research of anatomy and physiology. The spirit of inquiry which is now for the first time became general showed itself in schools, universities Italian anatomist of the 16th century and fifty years later spread to the University of Oxford.
The first academy was established for the life of Europe, Academia Naturae Curiosorum (1651) restrict ourselves to the description and illustration of the structure of plants and animals; eleven years later, the Royal Society of London was founded by royal charter.
A little later the Paris Academy of Sciences was founded by Louis XIV. Collectors and systematisers maturing in the second half of the 18th century in Linnaeus, other anatomists such as John Hunter also began work to examine anatomically the whole animal kingdom and to classify its members with the help of the results of careful study. Leeuwenhoek, a Dutch naturalist and tailors, introduced another revolution with the construction of the first microscope.
Not until the 19th century the microscope improved and resolved to zoology what some regard as the most important services. Perfecting the microscope leading to increased understanding of cell structure and formation of Cell Theory:

   1. Either that all organisms are built from a single cell or many cells;
   2. That all organisms begin their existence as single cells, which multiply by binary fission, the product grew in size and multiplying the same as binary fission, and
   3. That the life of multicellular organisms is the amount of activity that consists of cells and that the process should be studied in life and explanations derived from an understanding of the chemical and physical changes that go on within each individual cell of living matter or protoplasm.
Contributions individuals such as William Harvey (circulation of blood), Carolus Linnaeus (system of nomenclature), Georges Buffon (natural history), Georges Cuvier (comparative anatomy), and Claude Bernard (homeostasis) greatly advanced the field. Charles Darwin On the Origin of Species, published on November 24, 1859, is a scientific literature, considered the foundation of evolutionary biology.

Table Animal Kingdom from the first edition of Linnaeus Systema Naturae (1735).
Morphography is the exploration of the tabulation, systematic and characterization data on the animal, existing or extinct. This is similar to ethnography. Groups of people who have contributed to the field, including recent museum-makers and their modern descendants, curators and annotators animal collections, early explorers and modern naturalist travelers and writers fossil collectors and paleontologists.[Edit] Sub-fields and the fields related to zoology
Although the study of animal life is ancient, scientific incarnation of a relatively modern. This reflects the transition from natural history to biology in the early nineteenth century. Since Hunter and Cuvier, comparative anatomy studies has been associated with the investigation morphography shapins modern zoological region: anatomy, physiology, histology, embryology, and animal behavior. modern zoology first appeared in German universities and the UK. In England, Thomas Henry Huxley was a leading figure. His ideas centered on animal morphology. Many consider him the greatest comparative anatomist of the second half of the nineteenth century. Similar to Hunter, his course consisting of lectures and practical laboratory classes in contrast to the previous format of a lecture course. This system became widespread.
