THE
DEFINITIONS OF BIOLOGY
Biology,
study of living things and their vital processes. The field deals
with all the physicochemical aspects of life. The modern tendency
toward cross-disciplinary research and the unification of scientific knowledge
and investigation from different fields has resulted in significant overlap of
the field of biology with other scientific disciplines.
Biology

and broad field due to the wide variety of life found on Earth, so individual
biologists normally focus on specific fields. These fields are either
categorized by the scale of life or by the types of organisms studied.
Biology is
the scientific study of life. It is a natural
science with a broad scope but has several unifying themes that tie it
together as a single, coherent field. For instance, all organisms are
made up of cells that process hereditary information
encoded in genes,
which can be transmitted to future generations.
Biology is the study of life. The word "biology" is derived from the Greek words "bios" (meaning life) and "logos" (meaning "study"). In general, biologists study the structure, function, growth, origin, evolution and distribution of living organisms.
