The scientific study of insects is called entomology. Entomologists investigate various aspects of insect life, including their behavior, ecology, physiology, taxonomy, and impact on humans and the environment. This branch of biology is vital since insects comprise a significant portion of biodiversity on Earth, with millions of species identified and many more yet to be discovered. Entomology is crucial for agriculture, medicine, and conservation, as it contributes to pest control strategies, understanding pollination processes, and studying diseases transmitted by insect vectors. Entomologists play a pivotal role in addressing ecological challenges and promoting sustainable practices in various sectors.
