Zoology is one of the 3 Main Divisions of Biology

2 Divisions are (1) Botany, which is the science about plants, and (2) Microbiology, about microorganisms.

is concerned with the internal features of animals, so this is with the involvement of dissection.

The science of zoology is concerned also with the relationship of the organisms to their environment. This is to know the population is fit to stay in the environment and/or to determine if the environment can sustain the needs of the population. Knowing such information is essential for the concerned individuals or personalities to know how they manage and sustain the life of various organisms and their habitats as well.

Environment or Ecosystem

Knowing the structural characteristics of animals is to become aware of their functional properties. It helps us understand how animals live, grow, change and survive, for us to help preserve them, and prevent animal extinction.

Anatomy and Physiology

Zoology gives information on the roles of animals in the field of agriculture. This helps in the identification of those animals that are good in the development and growth of crops, and those that may cause damage as well. Equipped with such knowledge, the farmers will be able to expose their crops to useful organisms, and to protect their crops to destructive ones
