BIOLOGY AS A SCIENCE

Reading
1. Read the text with good pronunciation
2. Answer question based on the text

QUESTION ANSWER
1. What is the relation of Biology to Natural Biology is a natural science concerned with the
Sciences study of life and living organisms. Modern
biology is a vast and eclectic field composed of
many specialized disciplines that study the
structure, function, growth, distribution,
evolution, or other features of living organisms.

2. What is the different of Basic Science and Basic science or “pure” science seeks to
Applied Science
3. What is Homo sapiens
4. What is the impact of microscopy
5. What is the steps on scientific method
expand knowledge regardless of the short-term
application of that knowledge. In contrast,
applied science or “technology” aims to use
science to solve real-world problems such as
improving crop yields, finding a cure for a
particular disease, or saving animals threatened
by a natural disaster.
Homo sapiens is the latin name of human.
Homo sapiens, are a relatively new species,
having inhabited this planet for only the last
200,000 years (approximately).
Advances in microscopy also had a profound
impact on biological thinking. In the early 19th
century, a number of biologists pointed to the
central importance of the cell and in 1838,
Schleiden and Schwann began promoting the
now universal ideas of the cell theory.

Vocabulary
1.Find the meaning of words in bold based on the text

Answer :

Biology means the science of life or living in all its forms and phenomena,especially those related
to origin, growth, reproduction, structure, and behavior.

Cell means the smallest structural and functional unit of an organism, typically microscopic and
consisting of cytoplasm and a nucleus enclosed in a membrane.

Evolution means the process by which the physical characteristics of types of creatures change
over time, new types of creatures develop, and others disappear.

Homo sapiens is a species of bipedal primate belonging to modern humans, characterized by a

large brain, a nearly vertical forehead, a lighter skeleton and smaller teeth than earlier humans,
and a reliance on language and the creation and use of complex tools: the species has existed for
about 200,000 years.

Microscopy is the science of investigating small objects and structures using a microscope.
Microscopic means being invisible to the eye unless aided by a microscope.

Scientific method means a method of procedure that has characterized natural science since the
17th century, consisting in systematic observation, measurement, and experiment, and the
formulation, testing, and modification of hypotheses.

Basic science means the disciplines of mathematics, physics, chemistry, and biology. It is called
basic science because it provides a fundamental understanding of natural phenomena and the
process of transforming natural resources

Applied science is a discipline that is used to apply existing scientific knowledge to develop
more practical applications

DESCRIPTION
A. Are relatively recent organisms, originating within the
last 200 million years
B. Starts with an observation (often a problem to be
solved) that leads to a question.
C. Is not focused on developing a product or a service of
immediate public or commercial value, it may not
result in a practical application.
D. The aims is to use science to solve real-world problems
such as improving crop yields, finding a cure for a
particular disease, or saving animals threatened by a
natural disaster.
E. Consists of a series of well-defined steps, begin with
make an observation and finished with testing a
hypothesis by experimental data.
F. The first forms of life on Earth that existed for billions
of years before the evolution of larger organisms
G. The study of life and living organisms, including their
structure, function, growth, origin, evolution,
distribution, and taxonomy.

8. The scientific process H. A branch of science that concludes nature's phenomena

on the scientific basis or evidence which includes
different topics

9. Basic science I. Spread the theory of natural selection throughout the

scientific community
