Biology focuses on the structure, function, growth, origin, evolution, and distribution of all living things.

Additionally biologists have interest in the interactions between organisms and with the natural environment. The four unifying principles of modern biology are: evolution, genetics, cell theory, evolution, and homeostasis.
