Cell Biology :
Cell Biology means Biology of cell. It includes the study of structure, cellular morphology , function, molecular organization, growth , reproduction (cell cycle & division) and genetics of cell.These are all integral part of cell Biology. It means cytology is the part of cell Biology because of cytology is the study of cell structure and function. In other words, cell Biology and cytology are not same but not far to each other.In practical , cell Biology is the general or broad term but cytology is the medical term .
