Complete answer:
- In biology there are many branches. There are three primary divisions of biology - botany, zoology and microbiology.

1) Neurology refers to the study of neurons. Neurology is a branch of medicine that deals with nervous system diseases. Neurology deals with the treatment and diagnosis of all types of disorders and illnesses that include the peripheral and central nervous systems, including their coatings, blood vessels, and other components of the effector, such as muscles.

2) Mycology is a biological division dealing with the study of fungi, including their taxonomy,
their biochemical and genetic properties, and their usage to humans as a source of conventional medicine, food, tinder, entheogens, and their risks, such as toxicity or contamination.

3) Rhinology refers to a sub-specialty in the field of otolaryngology (ENT) which focuses on the treatment of diseases and disorders affecting the nasal cavity and sinuses. This may involve allergies, taste and scent issues, nose bleeds, obstructed nasal airflow, and sinusitis.

4) The nuclear cytology study is called karyology. Karyology is a branch of cytology concerned with the organisation of the nucleus of cells.

Thus, the correct answer is option D. i.e., Karyology.

Note:
- Botany is a biology branch that deals with the study of various features of plants. Theophrastus is known as the father of Botany.
- Zoology is a biology branch related to the study of various features of animals. Aristotle is considered to be the father of Zoology.
- Microbiology is a biology branch that deals with the study of various aspects of the microorganism. Leeuwenhoek is known as the father of Microbiology.
