Sub Branches of Biology:
Following are the main sub branches of biology.
1: MORPHOLOGY: Branch of biology that deals with the study of external characteristics of living organisms.
2: ANATOMY: Branch of biology that deals with the study of internal characteristics of living organisms.
3: HISTOLOGY: Branch of biology that deals with the study of Tissues of plants and animals under microscope.
4: CYTOLOGY: Branch of biology that deals with the study of structure, function, and composition of cell and organelles of plants animals.
5: PHYSIOLOGY: Branch of biology that deals with the study of functions and activities of various organs.
6: ECOLOGY: Branch of biology that deals with the study of relationship of organisms between eachother and with their non living environment. It is also known as Environment Biology.

10: PALEONTOLOGY: Branch of biology that deals with the study of plants and animals now founds as fossils in the rocks. It is further divide in to two branches.
a: Paleobotany: It is the study of plant fossils.
b: Paleozoology: It is the study of animal fossils.
11: BIOTECHNOLOGY: Branch of biology that deals with the study of applications of biological processes for the benefit of the mankind.
