What is Biology?

Biology is the scientific study of life and living organisms, including their structure, function, growth, evolution, distribution, and taxonomy. It explores the diversity of life, from molecules and cells to ecosystems and entire organisms. Biology aims to understand the complex processes that govern life and how living things interact with their environment.

Some of the main branches of biology include:

1. Botany (study of plants)

2. Zoology (study of animals)

3. Microbiology (study of microorganisms)

4. Ecology (study of ecosystems and interactions)

5. Genetics (study of heredity and variation)

6. Biochemistry (study of chemical processes in living organisms)

7. Molecular biology (study of biological molecules and their interactions)

Biology has many practical applications in fields like medicine, agriculture, conservation, and biotechnology.
