Top 15 branches of biology

        As we know, biology is the branch of science which deals with the study of living organisms, their structures, functions, and properties. Here we go to discuss some amazing branches of biology.

 Molecular Biology

          Molecular biology is a branch of biology which deals with the structure of organisms, the cells and their organelles at molecular level.

 Environmental Biology

       Environmental biology is the study of organisms in relation to their environment. This includes interaction between the organism and their inorganic and organic environment, especially as it relates to human activities.

Microbiology

       This is the study of microorganisms which include Bacteria, Viruses, Protozoa and microscopic algea and fungi.

Freshwater biology

       This branch of biology deals with the organisms living in freshwater bodies i.e., rivers, lakes etc and physical and chemical perameters of these water bodies.

 Marine Biology

       This is the study of life in seas and oceans. This includes the study of the marine life and the physical and chemical characteristics of the sea acting as factors for marine.

Parasitology

      This is the branch of biology which deals with the study of parasites. The structure, mode of transmission, life histories and host - parasite relationships are studied in parasitology.

Human Biology

       It deals with the study of man. This includes form and structure, function, histology, anatomy, morphology, evolution, genetics, cell biology and ecological studies etc. of human beings.

Social Biology

       This is the branch of biology which deals with the study of social behaviour and communal life of human beings.

Biotechnology

      It deals with the use of living organisms, systems or process in manufacturing and service industries for the welfare of mankind.

Biochemistry

       Biochemistry or biological chemistry is the study of chemical processes within and relating to living organisms. A sub-decipline of both biology and chemistry may be devided into three branches; structural biology, enzymology and metabolism.

Physiology

       Physiology is the scientific study of functions and mechanisms in living system. Physiology recognize how, organs, organ systems, cells and living bodies perform their chemical and physical functions.

Ecology

       Ecology is the study of relationships among living organisms and their physical environment. Ecology considers organisms at the individual, population, community, ecosystem and biosphere level.

Cell Biology

       This is the branch of science which deals with the study of structure, function and properties of cell. All living bodies are made up of cell. Cell is a basic unit of life that is responsible of functioning of life So, this is the study of cell at microscopic and molecular level.

Anatomy

        Anatomy is the branch of biology which deals with the study of structure of organism and their parts. It is an old science having its beginnings, in prehistoric times.

Botany

       Botany, also called plant science, plant biology or phytology, is the science of plant life and a branch of biology. A botanist, plant biologist or phytologist is a scientist who specializes in this feild.

   So, after doing research on these branches, I really got much informed and I thought that you should also know these interesting information
