Herpetologists primarily study life science. They focus on the study of reptiles and amphibians, including their biology, behavior, ecology, and conservation.
Reptiles, it was the answer to my Science HW
herpetology is the study of reptiles and perhaps amphibians (frogs, salamanders?)
The study of snakes would be considered a science. the overall science would be biology and the scientist would be a 'herpetologist' (who studies reptiles). Snakes themselves are naturally occurring animals.
Herpetology refers to the study of amphibians and reptiles of the animal kingdom. Those involved in this field study the behaviors, classification, diets, lifespan, etc. of said amphibians and reptiles.
Herpetology falls under the life sciences branch, specifically in the field of biology that focuses on the study of reptiles and amphibians.

They eat a lot of insects and other arthropods, some of them are a plague to humans. The skin of reptiles like monitor lizards, snakes and crocodiles is used to make leather and the meat of a lot of reptiles is used as food. Many turtles are being used as a 'medicine' in Asia. And a lot of reptiles are sold as pets.
I'm assuming you mean "Biology." If so, biology is the science and study of life, in all forms, from protists and amoebas to mammals and reptiles.
