 * Are the categories ‘news’, ‘animals’, ‘biology’… sperate pages? If yes, how do
   they act as categories?

 * I am not sure how they have their site set up, but below is some general information
   on categories/tags:
 * Category submenu:
    [https://codex.wordpress.org/Manage_Categories_SubPanel](https://codex.wordpress.org/Manage_Categories_SubPanel)
 * > **Category.** Each post in WordPress is filed under a category. Thoughtful 
   > categorization allows posts to be grouped with others of similar content and
   > aids in the navigation of a site. Please note, the post category should not
   > be confused with the Link Categories used to classify and manage Links.
 * > **Tag.** A Tag is a keyword which describes all or part of a Post. Think of
   > it like a Category, but smaller in scope. A Post may have several tags, many
   > of which relate to it only peripherally. Like Categories, Tags are usually 
   > linked to a page which shows all Posts having the same Tag. Tags can be created
   > on-the-fly by simply typing them into the Tag field. By default, tags can be
   > assigned only to the Post and custom post types.
   > Tags can also be displayed in clouds which show large numbers of Tags in various
   > sizes, colors, etc. This allows for a sort of total perspective on the blog,
   > allowing people to see the sort of things your blog is about most.
   > Many people confuse Tags and Categories, but the difference is easy: Categories
   > generally don’t change often, while your Tags usually change with every Post
   > and are closer to the topic of the Post.

 * I hope that helps a little. Good luck!
