Introduction #

Biology is a natural science that involves the study of life and living organisms. It explores various aspects of life, from the smallest bio-molecules to the vast complexity of ecosystems. The discipline is broad and includes many branches such as biochemistry, ecology, genetics, evolutionary biology, and more. It investigates the structure, function, growth, origin, evolution, and distribution of living entities. It also seeks to understand the intricate mechanisms of life at different levels, ranging from molecular interactions within cells to the interactions of organisms within their environment. This scientific exploration contributes significantly to our understanding of the natural world and forms the basis for advancements in medicine, biotechnology, conservation, and many other disciplines.

Endosymbiont

An endosymbiont is an organism that lives within the body or cells of another organism, typically forming a mutualistic relationship, which is a key concept in the endosymbiotic theory of organelle evolution.

Hypermetropia

Myopia

Myopia, also known as near-sightedness, is a condition where the eye focuses light in front of the retina instead of on it, causing distant objects to appear blurry while close objects appear clear.

Neoteny

Neoteny, also known as juvenilization, is the delaying or slowing of the physiological development of an organism, typically resulting in the retention of juvenile traits into adulthood.
