Paleo biology combines geology and paleontology to explain Earth's history. Parasitology studies parasites and their hosts, while pathology focuses on disease diagnosis. Pharmacology is the study of medicine, and physiology examines the functions of living organisms. The video concludes with a call to subscribe for daily math and science content.
