The main branches of science (also referred to as "sciences"‚ "scientific fields"‚ or "scientific disciplines") are commonly divided into two major groups: social sciences‚ which study human behavior and societies‚ and natural sciences‚ which study natural phenomena (including fundamental forces and biological life). These groupings are empirical sciences‚ which means the knowledge must be based on observable phenomena and be capable of being tested for its validity by other researchers working under

Biodiversity study guide 1. Briefly describe how our species started to appreciate the biodiversity of the planet (in a geographical and historical context)? Through the concept of evolution‚ ecology‚ population‚ community and the environment. Species through different periods evolve physiologically and adapting to new environments. Animals who can’t live or survive in certain regions either migrate or die. Common ancestors often link to present day organisms showing biologically and different

sciences in high school‚ my interest in science has deeply increased; recently I was under pressure to choose a course of study at the undergraduate level‚ but I knew I wanted to do something in the scientific field‚ particularly along the lines of biology and chemistry. While researching various courses‚ I came across genetics‚ which was of great interest to me‚ finding out that the course included aspects such as cell mutation‚ the studying of chromosomes‚ and the behavior of micro-organisms. These

Biology: Research Task and Oral PresentationResearch Task:1.Describe some mechanisms found in Australian fauna to ensure:•Fertilisation•Survival of the embryo and of the young after birthFertilisation is the fusion of haploid sex cells in the action of sexual reproduction. It is often a difficult process as:• careful timing is required: both female and male gametes need to be produced and released at the same time• arrangements need to be made to bring the gametes together• A watery medium is always

Mitosis v. Meiosis Biology is the study of life and the processes that a life form undergoes. Two very important biological processes in the field of biology are mitosis and meiosis. These two biological processes comprise the majority of what is studied in every cell unit within biology class. Many students have a difficult time understanding the similarities and differences between the two. Students also struggle to understand the phases of each cell division and the reason they occur. Mitosis
