The greatest discovery in the history of human biology

If one searches for "the greatest discovery in the history of biology", the top hits indicate that it was the discovery of DNA. Maybe, though I'm not sure. But least in the history of human biology, the greatest discovery surely was the discovery that pregnancy is caused by coitus. (A discovery presumably made independently in multiple cultures.)

    Does "I have a body" count as a discovery in human biology? That was pretty important.

    Maybe that's part of the discovery OF biology rather than IN biology?
