Why is it necessary for biology to have different branches?

Because 'biology' is a very, very broad subject- it means studying anything that is living. Dividing it up into separate branches allows it to be more specialized- that way, people interested in, say, fish could specifically be marine biologists, and not be burdened by all the other studies required to simply become a 'biologist.'
