 Biology is that the science that studies life and living organisms, including their body, chemical processes, molecular interactions, physiological mechanisms, development and evolution. Despite the complexity of the science, there are certain unifying concepts that consolidate it into one, coherent field. Biology recognizes the cell because the essential unit of life, genes because the essential unit of heredity, and evolution because the engine that propels the creation and extinction of species. Living organisms are open systems that survive by transforming energy and decreasing their local entropy to require care of a stable and vital condition defined as homeostasis. Sub-disciplines of biology are defined by the research methods employed and thus the quite system studied: theoretical biology uses mathematical methods to formulate quantitative models while experimental biology performs empirical experiments to see the validity of proposed theories and understand the mechanisms underlying life and therefore the way it appeared and evolved from non-living matter about 4 billion years ago through a gradual increase within the complexity of the system. See branches of biology. Biology derives from the traditional Greek words of βίος; romanized bíos meaning "life" and -λογία; romanized logía (-logy) meaning "branch of study" or "to speak". Those combined make the Greek word βιολογία; romanized biología meaning biology. Despite this, the term βιολογία as an entire didn't exist in Ancient Greek. The first to borrow it had been English and French (biologie). Since the arrival of the scientific era, reanalyzable as a compound using the combining forms bio + logy.
