Biology is the science that studies living things, their evolution, and life processes. It includes the study of animals, plants, fungi, and microorganisms. The term "biology" was introduced in 1802 and immediately adopted to refer to the study of life and living organisms.
Physics is the fundamental scientific discipline that seeks to understand the universe by studying matter, motion and force. It connects ideas about symmetry, conservation of energy, momentum, charge and parity. Physics can be defined as understanding the natural order of events and the behavior of the universe. It is a very old field of study that includes astronomy and helped develop calculus and new technologies.
Computer science is the study of computational systems and their principles

MY HOMAGE TO ALBERT EINSTEIN WHO REVOLUTIONIZED MODERN SCIENCE.pdfFaga1939
Albert Einstein was a German physicist born in 1879 who revolutionized modern science through his theories of special and general relativity. In 1905, he published works establishing special relativity and that mass and energy are equivalent. In 1915, he developed general relativity, establishing that gravity results from the curvature of space and time caused by the uneven distribution of mass/energy. Einstein spent his later years unsuccessfully attempting to develop a unified field theory combining general relativity and quantum mechanics. He made many other scientific contributions and warned of the dangers of nuclear weapons. Einstein was a genius who changed our fundamental understanding of space, time, and the universe.
Dr. Avul Pakir Jainulabdeen Abdul Kalam was born in 1931 in Rameshwaram, Tamil Nadu. He came from a humble background and had to work hard from a young age to support his studies.

As Chief Scientific Advisor to the Indian government, he advocated for using science and technology to solve social problems and make India a developed nation. He is renowned for his contributions to India's defense and space programs and was the first scientist to become President of India.

A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.
