It follows from the teaching of dialectical materialism about the knowability of the world that the laws of the development of social life are just as knowable as the laws of the development of nature.

Idealism fights furiously against the assertion of Marxist philosophy about the knowability of the world.

Accordingly, with respect to their knowability or opinability, Socrates makes no distinction among the sensibles between natural things and artifacts (510a5–6); both are relegated to the realm of opinion. Hence, there is no Socratic-Platonic biology.
