BIOLOGY:

- Blankets the investigation of all the living creatures and their collaborations into the biosphere.

Additionally, research the natural elements that encompass the living creatures; and, by method for moderation, it looks for more viable approaches to comprehend the varieties or new states of the environment that can debilitate the presence of living creatures on our planet.
