Answer 1

I think you're thinking of a Bachelor's of Science degree (4-year undergraduate degree), not Ph.D (which is 6 more years on top of a 4-year undergraduate degree).

In Physics, you need need all the calculus up to Differential Equations, at least. When I was a physics major, I also took a statistics class, Linear Algebra, and Complex Variables.

In Biology, you need at least math up through Precalculus, possibly a semester or two of calculus as well depending on the program. You'll also need a statistics class.

Answer 2

u shd have good knowledge of limits,differentiation,integration,trigonometry,logarithm....i think its enough
