What is the significance of biology in the life of a person whose activities are not related to biology?

Knowledge of the basics of biology, which is taught at school, helps a person to navigate in everyday issues. Knowledge of the basics of botany will help you to plant a plant correctly and grow it in the country, or on the windowsill; collect the necessary herbs for tea or medicine; determine the ripeness and edibility of the fruit. Knowledge of the basics of zoology will help you to correctly understand the needs of a pet, knowing its structure and behavior; correctly determine the methods of dealing with harmful and parasitic animals; recognize dangerous representatives of the fauna, etc. There is nothing to say about knowledge of anatomy, because this information may one day save your life. Evolution, genetics, molecular biology, cytology, etc. describe the living world in more detail and, often, do not solve everyday issues, however, knowledge of their foundations speaks of human intelligence.



One of the components of a person's success in our time is receiving modern high-quality education, mastering the knowledge, skills and abilities necessary for life in society. A person today needs to study almost all his life, mastering everything new and new, acquiring the necessary professional qualities.
