- For more information, see Citizendium's List of biology topics, and List of important publications in biology
- Biochemistry [r]: The chemistry of living things; a field of both biology and chemistry. [e]
- Biodiversity [r]: The study of the range of life forms in a given ecosystem. [e]
- Biogeography [r]: The study of patterns of species distribution and the processes that result in such patterns. [e]
- Botany [r]: The study of plants, algae and fungi (mycology). [e]
- Cell Biology [r]: The study of the components of cells and their interactions. [e]
- Developmental biology [r]: The study of how cells grow and interact to form an organism. [e]
- Ecology [r]: The study of the distribution and abundance of organisms and how they are affected by the environment. [e]
- Endocrinology [r]: Generically, the study of glands and the hormonal regulation of physiology; also the subspecialty of internal medicine concerned with diseases of the endocrine system [e]
- Ethology [r]: The scientific study of animal behavior. [e]
- Evolutionary biology [r]: The study of the origin and descent of species, as well as their change, multiplication, and diversity over time. [e]
- Genetics [r]: The study of the inheritance of characteristics, genes and DNA. [e]
- Immunology [r]: The study of all aspects of the immune system in all animals. [e]
- Marine Biology [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Microbiology [r]: The study of microorganisms (overlapping with areas of virology, bacteriology, mycology, and parasitology). [e]
- Molecular biology [r]: The study of molecular interactions within cells. [e]
- Morphology [r]: Please do not use this term in your topic list, because there is no single article for it. Please substitute a more precise term. See Morphology (disambiguation) for a list of available, more precise, topics. Please add a new usage if needed.
- Neuroscience [r]: The study of nervous systems and their components. [e]
- Physiology [r]: The study of the mechanical, physical, and biochemical functions of tissues and how they interact. [e]
- Systematics [r]: The study of the diversity of organism characteristics, and how they relate via evolution. [e]
- Systems biology [r]: The study of biological systems as a whole. [e]
- Taxonomy [r]: The principles underlying classification, often in a hierarchy. [e]
- Virology [r]: The study of viruses, sometimes included in the field of microbiology. [e]
- Zoology [r]: Add brief definition or description
