Parent topics
- Science [r]: The organized body of knowledge based on non–trivial refutable concepts that can be verified or rejected on the base of observation and experimentation [e]
Subtopics
- Life [r]: Living systems, of which biologists seek the commonalities distinguishing them from non-living systems. [e]
Subdisciplines
- Anthropology [r]: The holistic study of humankind; from the Greek words anthropos ("human") and logia ("study"). [e]
- Astrobiology [r]: The study of life in the universe. [e]
- Biochemistry [r]: The chemistry of living things; a field of both biology and chemistry. [e]
- Biodiversity [r]: The study of the range of life forms in a given ecosystem. [e]
- Biogeography [r]: The study of patterns of species distribution and the processes that result in such patterns. [e]
- Bioinformatics [r]: The study of (usually molecular) biological systems by computational means. [e]
- Biophysics [r]: The study of forces and energies in biological systems. [e]
- Botany [r]: The study of plants, algae and fungi (mycology). [e]
- Cardiotoxicity [r]: Occurrence of heart electrophysiology dysfunction or/and muscle damage. The heart becomes weaker and is not as efficient in pumping and therefore circulating blood. Cardiotoxicity may be caused by chemotherapy treatment, complications from anorexia nervosa, adverse effects of heavy metals intake, animal venom, or a drug. [e]
- Cell biology [r]: The study of the components of biological cells and their interactions. [e]
- Computational biology [r]: The study of biological systems by computational means [e]
- Developmental biology [r]: The study of how cells grow and interact to form an organism. [e]
- Ecology [r]: The study of the distribution and abundance of organisms and how they are affected by the environment. [e]
- Endocrinology [r]: Generically, the study of glands and the hormonal regulation of physiology; also the subspecialty of internal medicine concerned with diseases of the endocrine system [e]
- Ethology [r]: The scientific study of animal behavior. [e]
- Evolutionary biology [r]: The study of the origin and descent of species, as well as their change, multiplication, and diversity over time. [e]
- Genetics [r]: The study of the inheritance of characteristics, genes and DNA. [e]
- History of biology [r]: The study of the development of knowledge and methodology in the study of life. [e]
- Immunology [r]: The study of all aspects of the immune system in all animals. [e]
- Marine biology [r]: The study of life in the seas and oceans. [e]
