Brief introduction of biology specialty
Biology (biology or life science for short) is a science to explore life phenomena and the laws of life activities, and it is a basic subject in natural science. Its research object is the structure, function, occurrence and development law of organisms (including plants, animals and microorganisms). Its purpose is to clarify and control life activities, transform nature and serve the practice of agriculture, industry and medicine.
For thousands of years, human beings have accumulated rich knowledge about plants, animals, microorganisms and human bodies in the practice of agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry, fishing and medicine. From 65438 to 0859, the British naturalist Darwin published The Origin of Species, which established the materialist view of biological evolution and promoted the rapid development of biology.
Biological science is a science that studies the laws of life activities based on experiments. Most universities are in the Academy of Life Sciences, and biotechnology and bioengineering are brother majors. Its specialty covers a wide range, including botany, zoology, microbiology, neurology, physiology, histology, anatomy and so on.
Biological science (different from biology) studies the structure, physiological behavior, origin, evolution and genetic development of organisms, and has experienced the development periods of experimental biological science, molecular biological science and system biological science.
