What if, instead of his phenomenal discoveries in mathematics and physics, Isaac Newton had made breakthroughs in biology instead?

If Isaac Newton had made break through s in bi ology instead of mathematics and physics , he would likely be remembered as one of the most influ ential figures in the field of bi ology . His work in this area could have had a prof ound impact on our understanding of the natural world and how living organ isms function . \n \n New ton ' s mathematical and scientific approach to problem - sol ving would have likely been applied to the study of bi ology , leading to new ins ights and discover ies . He may have made significant contributions to the fields of gen et ics , evolution , and the structure of cells , among others . \n \n F ur ther more , Newton ' s work in opt ics and his development of the reflect ing teles cope could have also been applied to the study of bi ology , allowing for new ways of obser ving and understanding the behavior of living organ isms . \n \n Over all , if Isaac Newton had focused his tal ents on bi ology , he could have made ground bre aking contributions to our understanding of life on Earth , and his legacy would likely be remembered in this field as well as in mathematics and physics . </s>
