Difficulty: Easy
Correct Answer: Insect : Entomology
Explanation:
Introduction / Context:
This is a subject-to-discipline mapping. Cytology is the study of cells. We must identify the option where the second term names the scientific study of the first.
Given Data / Assumptions:
Key biological branches: entomology = study of insects; ornithology = study of birds (not worms); ichthyology = study of fishes; physiology = functions of organisms (not specifically diseases); morphology = form/structure (tissues are studied in histology).
Concept / Approach:
Only “Insect : Entomology” correctly mirrors “Cells : Cytology.” The others intentionally mismatch subject and field names to test vocabulary precision.
Step-by-Step Solution:
Verification / Alternative check:
Any biology glossary confirms the definitions above.
Why Other Options Are Wrong:
They pair subjects with the wrong disciplines.
Common Pitfalls:
Confusing similar-sounding disciplines (ornithology vs ichthyology) or functional vs structural biology (physiology vs histology/morphology).
Final Answer:
Insect : Entomology
