Each of the omics studies a subset of molecular biology with a data intensive and broad point of view that tries to understand global function or organisms, trying to understand what every biologically relevant molecule does as part of the hole metabolism.
The main omics are:
Omics might be stamp collecting, but maybe it is a bit more like Trading card game/Magic: The Gathering collecting, in which the cards that you are collecting actually have specific uses and interactions, especially considering that most metabolic pathways are analogous across many species.

. "Omics" is a term that encompasses a variety of fields of study that involve analyzing biological molecules on a large scale. It is derived from the suffix "-ome," which denotes a comprehensive collection or system. The most common omics disciplines include: 1. **Genomics**: The study of the genome, which is the complete set of DNA within an organism, including its genes and non-coding sequences.
