A zoo (short for zoological garden; also called an animal park or menagerie) is a facility in which animals are kept within enclosures for public exhibition and often bred for conservation purposes. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zoo)
Animal husbandry can be described as the proper management and care of animals, including the regulation of water, food, environment, and breeding. (Adapted from Copeland, N. (2018). Husbandry. In: Vonk, J., Shackelford, T. (eds) Encyclopedia of Animal Cognition and Behavior. Springer, Cham. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-47829-6_240-1)
The increment (generally for volume or basal area) over a specified period, expressed as a percentage of the amount at the beginning of, or more commonly halfway through, the period. (FAO Language Resources Project, 2005; IUFRO, Vienna, 2005. )

Zosteraceae, one of the four seagrasses families, is a family of marine perennial flowering plants found in temperate and subtropical coastal waters, with the highest diversity located around Korea and Japan. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zosteraceae)
A zygote is a eukaryotic cell formed by a fertilization event between two gametes. The zygote's genome is a combination of the DNA in each gamete, and contains all of the genetic information necessary to form a new individual. In multicellular organisms, the zygote is the earliest developmental stage. In single-celled organisms, the zygote can divide asexually by mitosis to produce identical offspring.

The herbicide 2,4-D is a legacy compound that has been widely used as the active ingredient in thousands of formulations worldwide. The compound 2,4-D mimics the action of a natural plant hormone, indole-3-acetic acid,14 producing uncontrolled growth in plants and eventually causing death. (Tu, P., Gao, B., Chi, L., Lai, Y., Bian, X., Ru, H. & Lu, K. 2019. Subchronic low-dose 2,4-D exposure changed plasma acylcarnitine levels and induced gut microbiome perturbations in mice.
