1. **Cell Biology**: Focuses on the structure, function, and behavior of cells, which are the basic
units of life.
2. **Genetics**: Studies genes, heredity, and genetic variation in organisms, including how traits are
passed down from one generation to the next.
3. **Evolutionary Biology**: Examines the processes that have shaped the diversity of life on Earth
over time, including natural selection, adaptation, and speciation.
4. **Ecology**: Investigates the interactions between organisms and their environment, including
the distribution and abundance of species, nutrient cycling, and ecosystems.
5. **Physiology**: Explores how organisms function at the level of organs, tissues, and organ
systems, including topics such as metabolism, growth, and reproduction.
6. **Microbiology**: Studies microorganisms like bacteria, viruses, fungi, and protists, including their
structure, function, and impact on other organisms.
8. **Biomedical Science**: Focuses on the application of biological principles to human health and
disease, including anatomy, immunology, and pathology.
9. **Biochemistry**: Investigates the chemical processes and substances that occur within living
organisms, such as metabolism and enzyme functions.
10. **Botany and Zoology**: Branches of biology that respectively focus on plants and animals,
including their classification, structure, physiology, and ecological roles.
Biology is a dynamic field with ongoing research and discoveries that continually deepen our
understanding of life at all levels of organization.
