No. Pseudo-Science is a belief that's often has no facts to support it's truth. A good example of this is religion.

Why, the very word pseudo means fake or false. Biology is hard facts, however, not just guesswork.

Something can reasonably be called pseudoscientific if it meets the following criteria:

1) It is presented as consistent with the accepted norms of scientific research, but

2) fails to meet these norms - most importantly - in use of the scientific method.

Why study of philosophy of science?

Philosophy is no longer a field of Science at all. Science, specifically Physics, did develop from Philosophy, and other Sciences developed from Physics. This (above) explains the term "PhD" (Doctor of Philosophy) and "Physician". There are many differences between Philosophy and Science. The most important is probably that Science deals exclusively with physical objects (living or not), while Philosophy has a wider area of concern. Also, in Science, questions can (often) be answered by performing an experiment. If everyone agrees that the experiment was designed and done well, the results are accepted as "the correct answer." It is not like that in Philosophy.
