Explanation

Eugenics is the science of applying principles of heredity to improve human genetic quality, though the term is now controversial due to historical misuse. Cell biology studies cell structure and function, cytogenetics combines cytology and genetics, and plant genetics specifically deals with heredity in plants - none of these focus on human improvement through heredity.
