Biological and related sciences

Biological sciences are a system of sciences that study the forms and patterns of development of living organisms. The biological sciences include a number of disciplines:

Private sciences. They study specific systematic groups of living organisms (plants, animals, fungi, bacteria, viruses, humans).
General sciences:
- Cytology (studies living cells, their structure, functioning, processes of cell reproduction, aging and death);
- Histology (studies the structure, vital activity and development of tissues of living organisms);
- Anatomy (studies the internal structure of organisms);
- Physiology (studies the patterns of functioning and regulation of biological systems at different levels).
Sciences at the junction with other sciences:
- Biochemistry (studies the chemical composition of living cells and organisms, as well as the underlying chemical processes);
- Biophysics (studies the physical aspects of the existence of living nature at all its levels, from molecules and cells to the biosphere as a whole).
