Grade Select GradeIIT JEE Entrance Exam

I am a student of 11th grade and I have opted for Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics and Biology with the language English. I recently read about the following rule:
“The five subjects will be taken into account for calculation of percentile and normalization of
qualifying examination marks for paper 1(B.E./B. Tech.) and paper 2 (B. Arch./B. Planning)of JEE
(Main) which are:

1- Language,
2- Physics,
3- Mathematics,
4- Any one of (Chemistry, Biology, Biotechnology, Technical Vocational Subject),
5- Any other subject.

Note: If a candidate has appeared in six subjects in the qualifying examination, the subject (fifth
or sixth) with better marks will be considered.”
I would like to know if I am eligible to appear for the JEE-Main exam with the subjects I have opted for. Also, would I be eligible for the same if I opt for Biotechnology instead of Biology?
Thank You
