Biology

Discover the science of life and living organisms

What is Biology?

Biology is the scientific study of life and living organisms, including their physical structure, chemical processes, molecular interactions, physiological mechanisms, development, and evolution.

Biology encompasses diverse fields from molecular biology to ecology, studying everything from microscopic bacteria to massive ecosystems. The field seeks to understand how living organisms function, interact, and evolve over time.

Modern biology combines traditional observation with advanced technologies like genetics, biochemistry, and computational modeling to unravel the mysteries of life at all scales, from atoms to ecosystems.
