Did you know that messages from the human brain travel along nerves at up to 200 miles an hour?
Or that the human body is composed of trillions of cells, each with their own special function? Biology is the fascinating study of life and living organisms, a science that really helps us to understand the structures, processes, growth, origins, and evolution of humans, plants, and animals.
You may be currently studying the topic, or maybe you're interested in becoming a biologist yourself. Either way, while biology is definitely a matter to take seriously, there is also plenty of light and funny things that we can take from it, such as these puns!
