Chapter 1 - 1 The Nature of Science

Science Science – Science is observing, studying, and experimenting to find the nature of things.

The Branches of Science Natural Science Life Science Physical Science Earth Science

Life Science Life Science – The science of living things. Also called Biology. Botany Zoology Ecology

Physical Science Physical Science – The science of matter and its energy. Physics – forces and energy Chemistry – matter and its changes

Earth Science Earth Science – The science of earth and it’s natural processes. Geology Meteorology Hydrology Oceanography

Technology and Science Technology is the application of science for practical purposes. Technology and science depend on one another

Science and Technology The goal of science is to gain knowledge about the natural world. The goal of technology is to apply scientific understanding to solve problems.

Scientific Law vs. Theory: Laws and Theories are supported by evidence!!! Theory – Accepted explanation for something observed in nature. Law – Statement about how nature works Theories and Laws can be changed!!!

Qualitative vs. Quantitative Statements Qualitative Statement – Describes a law or theory with words. Quantitative Statement – Describes a law or theory using mathematical equations

Conservation of Energy Law or Theory? The Big Bang Gravity Conservation of Energy Evolution Plate Tectonics

Models Scientific model - representation of an object or event Can be studied to understand object or event.
