Mathematics: It is as if mathematics were the vegetables of the academic dinner: Everyone knows that they are good for you, but no one forces you to eat them.
-- Timothy Norfolk I think of lotteries as a tax on the mathematically challenged.
-- Roger Jones As long as algebra is taught in school, there will be prayer in school.
-- Cokie Roberts Physics professor has been doing an experiment, and has worked out an empirical equation that seems to explain his data. He asks the math professor to look at it.
A week later, the math professor says the equation is invalid. By then, the physics professor has used his equation to predict the results of further experiments, and he is getting excellent results, so he asks the math professor to look again.
Another week goes by, and they meet once more. The math professor tells the physics professor the equation does work, "but only in the trivial case where the numbers are real."
-- Anonymous Chemistry: Organic chemistry is the chemistry of carbon compounds. Biochemistry is the study of carbon compounds that crawl.
-- Mike Adams In 1929 London published a very approximate solution of the Schroedinger equation for a system of chemical interest: H3. To the extent that chemistry can be regarded as existing separately from physics, this was a landmark in the history of chemistry, comparable in importance to the landmark in the history of physics marked by the appearance of the Heitler-London equation for H2. The expression for H3, was, of necessity, even less accurate than that for H2, but chemists, like the habitual poor, were accustomed to this sort of misfortune. Together with the physicists they enjoyed the sensation of living in a renaissance. The physicists still could not calculate a great deal that was of interest to them, and the chemists could calculate less, but both could now dream.

-- Anonymous I think Computer Viruses should count as life. I think it says something about human nature that the only form of life we have created so far is purely destructive. We've created life in our own image.
-- Stephen Hawking Physics: Physics is like sex: sure, it may give some practical results, but that's not why we do it.
-- Richard Feynman All theoretical chemistry is really physics; and all theoretical chemists know it.

There are ten branches of biological science. They are as follows: Anatomy and Physiology- the study of form and function, zoology- study of animals, invertebrate zoology- study of invertebrates, vertebrate zoology- study of vertebrates, botany- study of plants, microbiology- the study of microorganisms, parasitology- the study of parasites, histology- the study of tissues, mycology- the study of fungi, and entomology- the study of insects.
Branches of Biology
Zoology
This is a branch of Biology that studies animals. The term zoology originated from the Greek term "Zoon" meaning animal and "logos" meaning study. Zoology is divided into Applied Zoology, the study of production and non production animals, Systematic Zoology, dealing with evolution and taxonomy or science of naming living things and Organismal Zoology, the study of animals in our biosphere. Applied Zoology is further divided into, Aquaculture, which involves production and maintenance of freshwater and seawater animals and plants, Piggery, which includes study of everything related to pigs, Applied Entomology,which includes manipulation of insects for the benefit of humans, Vermiculture, which is breeding of the worms which burrow soil, for production of natural fertilizers, Poultry Science, the study of domestic birds such as geese, turkey and chicken, Parasitology, dealing with the study of parasites, Radiation Biology, which uses gamma rays, X-rays, electrons and protons for well-being of humans, Biotechnology, which applies engineering principles for the material processing by biological factors, Applied Embryology, which embraces test tube culture (embryo culture) for increasing productivity from cattle, Tissue Culture, involving the culture of plant tissues and cells in an artificial environment, Dairy Science, which deals with milk or milk related products, Pesticide Technology, which is the study of pesticides and their uses, Nematology which deals with study of roundworms of organisms and their control, Ornithology, which is the study of birds, Herpetology, study of reptiles, Ichthyology, which is the study of fish and Mammology, which includes the study of mammals.
Entomology
One of the sub branches is entomology, which is exclusively based on insects. It concentrates on studying the taxonomy, features, adaptations, roles and behavior of insects.
Ethology
Truly speaking, ethology comes under zoology and deals with behavioral adaptations of animals, specially in their natural or original dwelling places.
Anatomy
Applicable to plant anatomy and animal anatomy, it involves studying the detailed structure, internal organs and the respective functions of an organism.
Physiology
Physiology is defined as the study of various functions and processes of living organisms. Physiology is further divided into Evolutionary Physiology, which is the study of physiological evolution, Cell Physiology - the study of cell mechanism and interaction, Developmental Physiology, which involves the study of physiological processes in relation to embryonic evolution, Environmental Physiology, which deals with the study of response of plants to agents such as temperature, radiation and fire and Comparative Physiology, roughly explained as the study of animals except humans.
Genetics
This is considered to be an interesting field of study and is a branch of biology. Genetics is the study of genes. This term is derived from the Greek word "genetikos" meaning "origin". This branch of biology studies about the hereditary aspects of all living organisms. The study of inheritance of traits from the parent had begun in the mid-nineteenth century and was pioneered by a renowned biologist Gregor Mendel. The modern science of genetics is based upon the foundations laid down by this biologist.
Botany
The study of plant life or phytology is known as botany. One of the most prominent among the different branches of biology, botany is a vast subject and studies the life and development of fungi, algae and plants. Botany also probes into the structure, growth, diseases, chemical and physical properties, metabolism and evolution of the plant species. Botany implies the importance of study of plant life on earth because they generate food, fibers, medicines, fuel and oxygen.
Evolution Biology
As we all know, highly developed organism have evolved from simpler forms. There is a specific branch of biology, called evolution biology that focuses on the evolution of species.
Developmental Biology
As the name signifies, development biology helps a student in learning the various phases of growth and development of a living creature.
Ecology
Ecology is a branch of biology that studies the interaction of various organisms with one another, and their chemical and physical environment. This branch of biology studies environmental problems such as pollution and how it affects the eco-cycle. The term ecology is derived from the Greek term "oikos" meaning "household" and "logos" meaning "study". A German biologist, Ernst Haeckel, coined the term ecology in 1866.
Cryobiology
This deals with the effects of extremely low temperature in living cells and organisms as a whole.
Biochemistry
This branch of biology studies the chemical processes in all living organisms. Biochemistry is a branch of science that studies the functions of the cellular components such as nucleic acids, lipids, proteins and various other bio-molecules.
Cytology and Molecular Biology
In-depth study about the cell along with its structure, function, parts and abnormalities are all studied under cell biology or cytology. Likewise, study of organisms at the molecular level is called molecular biology.
Marine Biology
Marine biology studies the ecosystem of the oceans, marine animals and plants. There is a vast portion of ocean life that is still unexplored. You can rightly say that marine biology is a branch of oceanography, which is, again, a branch of biology.
Bioinformatics
Bioinformatics basically relates to genomic studies with the application of data processing, computational knowledge and statistical applications.
Mycology
According to modern-day taxonomy, fungi (singular fungus) is neither a plant nor an animal. It belongs to a different living group and is studied under the subject, mycology.
Biophysics
Biophysics involves the study of relation between organisms or living cells and electrical or mechanical energy. Biophysics is further divided into the following sub-branches: Molecular Biophysics, which defines biological functions in relation to dynamic behavior and molecular structure of various living systems such as viruses, Bio mechanics is the study of forces applied by muscles and gravity on the skeleton, Bio electricity - the study of electric currents flowing through muscles and nerves and static voltage of biological cells, Cellular Biophysics, which incorporates study of membrane function and structure, and cellular excitation and Quantum Biophysics, which includes the study of behavior of living matter at molecular and sub molecular level.
Aquatic Biology
It involves study of life in water, like study of various species of animals, plants and micro-organisms. It incorporates the study of both freshwater and sea water organisms. Sometimes, aquatic biology is also referred to as limnology.
Biology as a science gives us the opportunity to make observations, evaluate and solve problems that are related to plants and animals. If you are interested in biology, pursuing a career in any branch of biology can be immensely rewarding.

the main branches of science are life,physical and earth science and i dont no the fourth branch of science so u would be better off not going with this answer
There are a number of different subjects that make up the study of Earth Science. For example, a student might study geology, physics, climatology, and biology as part of an Earth Science program.
Astronomy, geology, oceanography, meteorology, and envinronmental science
The four main divisions are geology, oceanography, meteorology and astronomy.
I don't recall ever seeing a schematic for science, but your suggestion is interesting. I'd divide natural science into the life sciences (biology) and material sciences (physics). Under physics I'd place cosmology, astronomy, geology, meteorology, and chemistry. Under biology I'd put botany, ecology, medicine, paleontology, etc. There is a lot of blurring and overlap, of course, such as in biochemistry, biomechanics, astrobiology, etc. Paleontology is about as much a science of rock, minerals, nuclear physics and geologic history as it is a science of biology.
geology
The four main branches science is chemistry, physics, biology, and math. There are other smaller categories asigned to these basic groups.
the two main branches of science is natural science, and muncar science.
It is Weather Life Science and two more...
there are many branches of science but the 5 main fields are: - chemistry - Biology - geology - physics - Astronomy
The main branches of science mean that there are main areas of science. These areas include biology, chemistry, and physics.
There are three main branches of science.
two main branch of science
There are three main branches of science: physical science, earth science and life science.
It's main branch is pure science then natural science then physical science.
the three main branches of science are life, physical, and earth sciences.
the three main branches of science are life, physical, and earth sciences.
