I have difficulty seeing how you can do biology beyond pure description (“Here’s a species of bird with appearance X and behavior Y”) while ignoring both genetics and natural selection. Doing cellular biology seems near-impossible if you can’t mention DNA, while ecology is similarly linked to selection pressure.
