• molecular biology- study of molecules that make up the cells of living organisms
• Pharmacogenomics- how genes affect a person's response to drugs
• synthetic biology- combined biology and engineering
• proteomics- different protein in an organism
• systembiology- systems of biological molecules
• importance of studying biology: 1.) helps you understand the fuctions and reactions of your body, (2). involves studying and examining other animals which helps in uderstanding how these animals survive, respond and interact in their environment, (3). study of different causative agents, (4). respond to the demands of an increasing population, (5). reproduction and population of growth of living organisms, (6). also include the study of plants, (7). understanding biological processes that lead to such problems help preserve endangered species and environment

• science- objective, logical, repeatable attempt to understand the principle and forces operating the world
• science- a body of systematized information about living things derived from observations and experiments.
• two main approach in scientific investigation: Discovery-based sciece and hypothesis-based science
• discovery-based science- verifiable observations and measurements
• discovery-based- empirical/ senses
• hypothesis-based science- use of scientific methods (guide ng biologists in solving problems)
• four steps in scientific method: observation, hypothesis, experiment, conclusion
• observation- indetifying and defining yung problem
• hypothesis- formulation a possible logical answer to the problem
