Wegener(1880-1930) was the first man to propose the theory gplate tectonics.h He had got a Ph.D in astronomy from the University of Berlin‚ but he was also interested in the other science field such as geophysics‚ meteorology‚ and climatology. He also contributed to meteorology by establishing to track air circulation using balloon. In 1911‚ he read a paper that listed identical fossils of plants and animals found on opposite side of the Atlantic‚ and he looked for more of such organisms. At

For example‚ a meteorologist will be involved in atmospheric research‚ weather forecasting‚ being able to teach others your specific knowledge in the field. The mainframe of meteorology is the work that will be done in weather forecasting.

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

بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم السلام عليكم ورحمة الله وبركاته Water cycle The Earth ’s water is always in movement‚ and the water cycle‚ also known as the hydrologic cycle‚ describes the continuous movement of water on‚ above‚ and below the surface of the Earth. Since the water cycle is truly a "cycle‚" there is no beginning or end. Water can change states among liquid‚ vapor‚ and ice at various places in the water cycle‚ with these processes happening in the blink of an eye and over

Gregor Johann Mendel (July 20‚ 1822 – January 6‚ 1884) was a German speaking Silisean scientist and Augustrian Friar who gained posthumous fame as the founder of the new science of genetics. Mendel demonstrated that the inheritance of certain traits in pea plants follows particular patterns‚ now referred to as the laws of Mendalian Science. The profound significance of Mendel’s work was not recognized until the turn of the 20th century‚ when the independent rediscovery of these laws initiated the
