1 Branches of Science How many branches of science do you know
2 Types of scientists Biology The study of life. Geology The study of Earth. Chemistry The study of Matter. Physics The study of matter and energy.
3 Aerodynamics: the study of the motion of gas on objects and the forces created Anatomy: the study of the structure and organization of living things Anthropology: the study of human cultures both past and present Archaeology: the study of the material remains of cultures Astronomy: the study of celestial objects in the universe Astrophysics: the study of the physics of the universe Bacteriology: the study of bacteria in relation to disease Biochemistry: the study of the organic chemistry of compounds and processes occurring in organisms Biophysics: the application of theories and methods of the physical sciences to questions of biology Biology: the science that studies living organisms Botany: the scientific study of plant life Chemical Engineering: the application of science, mathematics, and economics to the process of converting raw materials or chemicals into more useful or valuable forms Chemistry: the science of matter and its interactions with energy and itself
4 Climatology: the study of climates and investigations of its phenomena and causes Computer Science: the systematic study of computing systems and computation Ecology: the study of how organisms interact with each other and their environment Electronics: science and technology of electronic phenomena Engineering: the practical application of science to commerce or industry Entomology: the study of insects Environmental Science: the science of the interactions between the physical, chemical, and biological components of the environment Forestry: the science of studying and managing forests and plantations, and related natural resources Genetics: the science of genes, heredity, and the variation of organisms Geology: the science of the Earth, its structure, and history
5 Marine Biology: the study of animal and plant life within saltwater ecosystems Mathematics: a science dealing with the logic of quantity and shape and arrangement Medicine: the science concerned with maintaining health and restoring it by treating disease Meteorology: study of the atmosphere that focuses on weather processes and forecasting Microbiology: the study of microorganisms, including viruses, prokaryotes and simple eukaryotes Mineralogy: the study of the chemistry, crystal structure, and physical (including optical) properties of minerals Molecular Biology: the study of biology at a molecular level. Nuclear Physics: the branch of physics concerned with the nucleus of the atom Neurology: the branch of medicine dealing with the nervous system and its disorders Oceanography: study of the earth's oceans and their interlinked ecosystems and chemical and physical processes

8 The Scientific Method MR. BANKS AUGUST 2014
9 The Scientific Method:
10 The Scientific Method: A way to ask and answer scientific questions by making observations and doing experiments.
11 Hypotheses: A proposed explanation made on the basis of limited evidence and is a starting point for further investigation.
12
13
14 Conclusion: What you learned from the results of your experiment.
15 A proposed explanation made on the basis of limited evidence and is a starting point for further investigation. More than just an educated guess. It is testable, you can perform an experiment and determine if the hypothesis is correct. Based on current or previous observations.
16 Scientific method: A process that is the basis for scientific inquiry (questioning and experimenting).
17 Scientific method: A process that is the basis for scientific inquiry (questioning and experimenting).
18 Scientific method: A process that is the basis for scientific inquiry (questioning and experimenting).
