What is the scope of biology?

Answer 1

Biology has become such a vast research enterprise that it is not generally regarded as a single discipline, but as a number of clustered sub-disciplines. This article considers four broad groupings. The first group consists of those disciplines that study the basic structures of living systems: cells, genes etc.; the second group considers the operation of these structures at the level of tissues, organs, and bodies; the third group considers organisms and their histories; the final constellation of disciplines focuses on their interactions. It is important to note, however, that these boundaries, groupings, and descriptions are a simplified characterization of biological research. In reality, the boundaries between disciplines are fluid, and most disciplines frequently borrow techniques from each other. For example, evolutionary biology leans heavily on techniques from molecular biology to determine DNA sequences, which assist in understanding the genetic variation of a population; and physiology borrows extensively from cell biology in describing the function of organ systems.

Haha the two person before me gave you the exact same answer! Hey, at least I gave you a link (and source) hehe

Answer 4

Dear me, there are 3 people with the same answer. Let me post my perception of it then.

I see the boundary of Biology as living things. Anything other than living organisms are out of Biology, but even the slightest connection to those alive are warmly welcomed by Biology.
