Question

The study of plants and animals are called what?

Answer 1

Hint: We study life and all living organisms in biology. The term biology is derived from Greek word bios which means life and lógos which means to study. Biology is subdivided into separate branches for convenience of study, though all the subdivisions are interrelated by basic principles. Biology deals with all life processes occurring in an organism.

Complete answer:
The study of plants, their physiology, structural organization, genetics, and their distribution is known as botany.
Botany is also called plant biology or Phytology.
The term Phytology arises from two words- Phyto which means plant and lógos which means knowledge or study.
Plant Kingdom is classified into five parts- Algae, Bryophytes, Pteridophytes, Gymnosperms and Angiosperms.
Botanists study and research about different groups of plants, their structure, physiology, habitat, genetics, and uses.
Botany also includes the study of Fungi, their types, structure, etc.
The study of behavior, structure, physiology , genetics of animals is called zoology.
The word zoology arises from two words zôion which means animal and lógos which means knowledge.
A person or individual who studies and researches in the field of zoology is called a zoologist.
Aristotle is known as the Father of Zoology.
Zoology includes study about animal anatomy, physiology, histology, embryology, taxonomy, pathology, etc.
The animal kingdom is classified into 11 phylum based on fundamental features like level of organization, symmetry, cell organization, coelom, notochord, segmentation, etc.

Note:
Science is divided into three major subjects- Biology, Physics, and Chemistry. Physics includes the study of forces and energy which underlie atoms and their properties. Chemistry includes the study of chemicals, atoms, elements, and molecules.
Aristotle was the first person to attempt the scientific basis of classification. He classified plants in three parts- Trees, herbs, and shrubs, based on their morphology. He divided the animal into two parts: those which had red blood and those that did not have red blood.
