Biology
Overview
Biology is the study of living organisms and their interactions with the environment. It encompasses various subfields including genetics, evolution, ecology, and physiology. Biology explores the structure, function, growth, and development of organisms, from single cells to complex multicellular systems. It provides insights into how life processes work, how organisms adapt, and how biological systems are interconnected.
