In which branch of biology are the structure and functions of cells discussed?
Think it through first, then pick an option.

The structure, function and division of cells is the subject of Cytology.
Why the other options are wrong

- b Histology: Histology deals with tissues; the structure and function of cells belong to Cytology.
- d Morphology: Morphology describes the overall form of the body, not cells.
