Main Group of Living Things
It is the study of animals, including classification, physiology, development, evolution and behavior
Zoology
The study of the functions and mechanisms occurring in living organisms
Physiology
the study of development of an embryo from the stage of ovum fertilization through to the fetal stage.
Embryology
It is the study of biological processes by applying the theories and methods traditionally employed in the physical sciences
Biophysics
It is the study of the interactions of living organisms with one another and with the non-living elements of their environment
Ecology
It s the study of reptiles and amphibians
Herpetology
The microscopic study of tissues and organs through sectioning, staining, and examining those sections under a microscope.
Histology
The study of the processes through which an organism forms, from zygote to full structure
Developmental Biology
It is the study of the manipulation of living matter, including genetic modification and synthetic biology
Biotechnology
the study of ocean ecosystems, plants, animals, and other living beings
Marine biology
What are the three groups of microorganisms that are studied under microbiology?
Algae, Fungi, Bacteria
The study of biology and biological functions at the molecular level, some cross over with biochemistry
Molecular biology
The study of the origin and descent of species over time
Evolutionary Biology
It is the attempt to create products inspired by biological systems or to modify and interact with the biological systems
Biological engineering
It is the study of the geographic distribution of plants, animals, and other forms of life
Biogeography
It is the branch of agricultural science that deals with the production of crops and management of soil.
Agronomy
The study of the molecular structure of macromolecules like proteins, nucleic acids, and lipids.
Structural biology
the study of genes and heredity
Genetics
It is the use of information technology for the study, collection, and storage of genomic and other biological data
Bioinformatics
It is the interdisciplinary academic field that draws on ecology, geology, meteorology, biology, chemistry, engineering, and physics to study environmental problems and human impacts on the environment.
Environmental Science
It is the study of evolution, distribution, and future of life in the universe.
Astrobiology (also known as exobiology, exopaleontology, and bioastronomy)
The study of how cells work at a molecular level. It’s all about DNA, RNA, proteins, RNAs, and other important biomolecules.
Molecular biology
The study of ageing processes
Gerontology
The application of nanotechnology in biological research, and the study of living organisms and parts on the nanoscale level of organization
Nanobiology
It is the study of the preservation, protection, or restoration of the natural environment, natural ecosystems, vegetation, and wildlife
Conservation biology
