Paleontology
Paleontology is the study of life that existed prior to, and sometimes including, the start of the Holocene Epoch roughly 11,700 years ago. It encompasses the examination of plant and animal fossils, which includes the remains of organisms, their imprints, and traces of their activities. As a subdiscipline in Evolutionary Developmental Biology, Paleontology focuses on understanding how life forms have changed over time through evolutionary processes and how those changes are reflected in the morphological features of ancient species. Additionally, it provides insights into past environments and climates, thereby contributing to Zoology and other areas within Science. By studying fossils and their geological contexts, Paleontologists can reveal information about the Earth's history, its ancient ecosystems, and how life has adapted to changing conditions over millions of years.
