Is genetics a part of pure science?

It usually is considered to be a discipline of the biological sciences (Biology). An introductory Biology textbook is sure to have a chapter (or perhaps several chapters) on Genetics. In advanced Biology classes, you are likely to take an entire course on Genetics, and are likely to be using an entire textbook dealing only with Genetics.


What does genetics have to do with conservation biology?

genetics is the study of the genes found in genetic material(ex. DNA). DNA is found in the nucleus of your cells. The most important aspect of biology is the study of cells. So genetics is just a subset of biology.


What biological sciences support Darwin's theory of evolution?

The better question would be; what biological sciences DO NOT support Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection. Evolution is the backbone of biology and the theory that explains much about evolution is the bedrock on which all biology is built, regardless of the apparent absence in some disciplines of biology. It is no longer just Darwin's theory as many disciplines not formed then, and some extant then, have added to and refined the theory. Genetics Molecular cell biology. Evolutionary developmental biology. Biochemistry. Geology. Paleontology. Population generics. Botany. Evolutionary biology. And the list can go on. Google, disciplines in biology, wiki.
