What are the subdivisions of biology?

Answer 1

There are literally hundreds with varying levels of specificity.

You could divide Biology into that which concerns organisms with either of the major types of cells, called prokaryotes (which include single celled organisms such as bacteria and archaea) and eukaryotes (which includes everything else; plants, fungi, animals etc.)

If you then focused on animals you could list the initial subdivisions as the 5 mains groups of animals: mammals, birds, reptiles, fish and insects.

There are many, many different subdivisions of just human Biology, for example:

neurology, immunology, embryology, endocrinology, pathology and so on.

Its impossible to say how many divisions of biology because a subdivision can nearly always be broken down in to further subcategories.

Answer 3

Biology can be subdivided into various disciplines such as molecular biology, genetics, ecology, evolutionary biology, physiology, and microbiology, among others. Each subdivision focuses on different aspects of living organisms and their interactions with the environment.
