Human Biology-Definition {9}

 Human Biology-Definition:

Human biology is the branch of biology that focuses on humans in terms of evolution, genetics, anatomy and physiology, ecology, epidemiology, and anthropology. It can be a subfield of Primatology since humans belong to the group of primates, particularly of the family Hominidae (tribe Hominin). Since human biology is a course that deals mainly with humans, it is a viable option for use as a preparatory Course in medicine.

25 Branches of Biology;

     Anatomy: Anatomy is one of the main branches of biology that allows an individual to understand the structure and the parts of organisms including animals, human beings, and living organisms. Moreover, it investigates  Howa  living body adapts and maintains balance with the physical environment and human health.  Botany: Botany is another major branch of biology to scientifically study plants, their structure, histology, physiology, genetics, and ecology.  Moreover , the course covers the economic importance of various ecosystems and the impact of plants on the environment. After 12th, you can pursue BSc Botany to start a career in this field.  Taxonomy: It is one of the most important branches of Biology that deals with  categorizing  and naming different organisms based on their characteristics.  Zoology: Zoology is one of the essential branches of Biology which is concerned with the study of animal behavior, physiology, stru...

Evolutionary theory {5}

Evolutionary theory  mutation  diagram  This diagram shows how mutation and selection work as key factors in evolution.  Evolution pertains to the genetic changes in a population over successive generations driven by natural selection, mutation, hybridization, or inbreeding. (Ref.4) Charles Darwin is one of the major contributors to the theory of evolution. He is known for his work Origin of Species by Natural Selection after his Beagle voyage.  He was able to observe different plant and animal species. Based on his analysis, he postulated that living things have an inherent tendency to produce offspring of the same kind. Thus, the survival of the species becomes dependent on the available food and space. As a result, organisms compete as the carrying capacity of the habitat would not be able to sustain a massive population. (Ref.5) Survival or struggle for existence, thus, becomes an individual feat.
