science
the collection of observations, inferences, and models produced through a systematic study of nature that enables humans to exercise proper dominion over God’s world

5-analysis (any)
examine and evealuate test data
6-conclusion (crocidile)

experimental group
group being tested—the exact same as the other just with one different independent variable
workability
how well do the results predict future outcomes in similar situations
control group
group not tested—baseline to see if the experiment worked
Spontaneous generation
life comes from nonliving things like maggots being birthed by garbage
biogenesis
biological law states that life comes from similar life like frogs making more frogs
limits of science
deals with measurable and observable events/object, mans bias effects his findings, science doesnt establish moral truth, observation can be faulty
pure science
gaining knowledge—uses research method—finding out what makes good fertilizer
applied science
using knowledge—uses technical method—using said fertilizer
biology
study of life
attributes of life
movement, growth, reproduction, reaction, dies, similar chemical make up, made up of cells, requires energy, organized, comes from similar life
microscope
a biological tool
Anton van leeuwenhoek
father of microscopy
compound light microscope
uses light to magnify objects
resolution
detail quality
reflection
light bouncing off of objects
refraction
light bending going from one medium to another
electron microscope
uses electrons to magnify the object—greater resolution and magnification but its in black and white
