Systematic Zoology
Systematic zoology is a branch of zoology that studies the systematic classification of animals. It seeks to understand how different groups of organisms are related to each other and, ultimately, their evolutionary history. Systematic zoology uses a range of techniques to classify animals, such as morphological and molecular analysis, as well as classification of fossils. It is an important tool for understanding the relationships between and amongst different organisms, as well as for developing effective conservation strategies for threatened or endangered species. Systematic zoology also contributes to the development of medical and agricultural products, such as identifying new drug-resistant bacteria and creating new pest-resistant crops.
