Biotechnology is the use of cells or products of these cells for the service of human. while industrial biotechnology deals with the production of these products on industrial level.
There are four main classifications of biotechnology: red biotechnology (medical applications), white biotechnology (industrial applications), green biotechnology (agricultural applications), and blue biotechnology (marine and aquatic applications). Each classification focuses on different sectors and industries utilizing biological systems and organisms for various purposes.

Traditional biotechnology involves using living organisms or their products to make products, while modern biotechnology involves using genetic engineering and advanced technologies to manipulate the genetic makeup of organisms for specific purposes. Traditional biotechnology has been used for centuries, while modern biotechnology is a more recent development. Traditional biotechnology often relies on natural selection and breeding, while modern biotechnology allows for more precise and targeted genetic modifications.
Biotechnology is the development of products by using a biological process. Many problems associated with water, air, and soil contaminants can be fixed with new biotechnology.
In biotechnology, genetic engineering is used to modify living organisms to create products for biomedical and agricultural purposes. In biomedical applications, biotechnology is used to produce medicines, vaccines, and diagnostics tools. In agriculture, biotechnology is used to enhance crop yield, improve resistance to pests and diseases, and develop genetically modified organisms (GMOs) with specific traits.
Areas of biotechnology include genetic engineering, pharmaceuticals, agriculture, environmental biotechnology, and industrial biotechnology. Each area focuses on using biological systems and organisms to develop products and processes to benefit society.
