Solution
Biological Science: it is also termed as Biology, it is study of living organisms such as plants,
animals. Biological science aim to understand at molecular level biochemical level to
organismal and population levels. It include branches like Biochemistry, cell biology,
computational Biology, Biophysics, Development biology, evolution, ecology, microbiology,
Molecular biology etc.,
Beginning in the 1960, when the women movement in 20th century was nearing its peak, woman
compaigned for and finally won equal right in education and employment . Instead of few
woman training to be teacher, nurse, female student in increase in number were now choosing
