Study Notes
Fields of Biology Based on Structure
- Morphology: study of external form and structure of organisms, including shape and texture of leaves, stems, and other organs.
- Anatomy: study of bodily structure of animals and other living organisms, including internal organs like stomach, liver, and heart.
- Histology: study of tissue structure, focusing on details of parenchyma and connective tissue.
- Cytology: study of cells, including plant cells and nerve cells.
- Cell biology: study of cell structure, function, and components, including mitochondrion, ribosome, and nucleus.
- Molecular Biology: study of structure and function of informational molecules, such as DNA and RNA.
Fields of Biology Based on Life Processes
- There are many other branches of biology that focus on life processes, including:
- Reproduction: study of how an organism multiplies or forms identical copies of itself.
- Evolution: study of how an organism changes over millions of years.
- Ecology: study of an organism's relationship with its environment.
