=What is Life Science,and what are some of the branches of Life Science? =

  There are many fields of science, there are also many branches relating to different forms of life. An example would be // zoology //, which is the study of animals. // Zoology // branches into a number of other studies like // ornithology //, which is the study of birds, as well as // entomology. // This is the study of insects and bugs. Also, // mammalogy //is the study of mammals and ichthyology which is the study of fish. Another field of life science is // Herpetology // which is the study of reptiles and amphibians. All of these fall under the category of // Zoology // . Biology is the study of life. Biology also branches to other studies such as // genetics //. // Genetics // is the study of genes. Other branches of biology include // ecology // and // physiology //. // Ecology // is the study of organisms in their environments. // Physiology // is the study of the function of organisms. // Cytology // is also part of biology and physiology, and it is the study of cells. // Botany // is the study of plants. Within // botany // there is // mycology //, which is the study of fungi. Other studies of life science include // bacteriology // which is the study of bacteria. // Virology // is the study of viruses. To study the organisms that are very small you have to use a microscope to see it. A microscope magnifies tiny microscopic objects and is used to examine bacteria and parasites and other things that want to be magnified to an extreme magnification. An example of a branch that uses this is // Microbiology //, // Parasitology // and // Taxonomy //. // Microbiology // studies microscopic organisms. // Parasitological // studies parasites such as tics, and flees. // Taxonomy // is the classifying of organisms. // Pathology // and // Anatomy // are the study of diseases and study of the structure of an animal or plant. Lastly, // archeology // is the study of spiders. Although these are all the studies of very different things, it is very interesting to see how the sciences overlap and are intertwined. Without these branches of life science we wouldn't know as much as we know now today. In conclusion, life science is based off of the many different branches of science.
