Difference between Astrobiology and Outline of biology

Astrobiology vs. Outline of biology

Astrobiology is a branch of biology concerned with the origins, early evolution, distribution, and future of life in the universe. Biology – The natural science that involves the study of life and living organisms, including their structure, function, growth, origin, evolution, distribution, and taxonomy.

Abiogenesis

Molecular biology

Molecular biology is a branch of biology which concerns the molecular basis of biological activity between biomolecules in the various systems of a cell, including the interactions between DNA, RNA, proteins and their biosynthesis, as well as the regulation of these interactions.
