Biology Topic-the Scientific Method

The development of the scientific method in the late 1500’s to the early 1600’s was a crucial stepping-stone in the science community. The scientific method is based upon observations, hypotheses and experimentation. The concept is rather simple, and can be applied to many areas of study. Once an observation is made, the observer can make a hypothesis as to why that phenomenon occurs and can then design an experiment to prove whether or not that hypotheses is valid. Although the scientific method has been extremely useful in the discovery of various things from usages of medications to studying animal behavior, there are still those who question the usage of this tool. These critics claim that since

1) Vocabulary study: write a definition for each of the following terms and then use each in a sentence that clearly demonstrates the meaning:

Scientists are individuals who analyze how the world is viewed and how it came to be. They perceive nature, physics, and social realms. They help flourish the world into something great, they create the future, and discover Earth's hidden secrets. There are many categories of science, each category has extensive scientific knowledge, and the use of the scientific method. Scientists have been changing the world since the beginning of history.

Directions: Identify whether each group of words is a PH (phrase) or a CL (clause).

The Scientific Method is the approach that scientists use to investigate some phenomena. It’s a standard technique to find cause and effect of a particular problem.

Section B—DIRECTIONS: Complete each of the following sentences by writing in the Answers column the letter of the word or words that correctly completes each statement. (3 points for each correct answer)

The biological approach which is the oldest approach, stems from the study of biology and the work of Charles Darwin (1809). It wasn’t until the 20th century that biological psychology occurred as a science, prior to this the connection between the brain, mind and body was not understood. The biological approach focuses on genetics and how they affect an individual’s behaviour and the brain and nervous system, primarily the central nervous system. The brain has three main parts the Cerebrum which is split into two halves which determines thoughts and memories, the cerebellum which is responsible for actions and movement and the brain stem which governs basic functions such as breathing. The central nervous system is a part of the nervous system which is located in the brain and spinal cord and all information sent here is acted upon.

With prompting and support, identify the main topic and retell key details of a text.

(4 points) ScoreExplain how to focus a microscope using the high power lens. Include any safety issues you need to be aware of. Answer To focus a microscope using the high power lens, you need to carefully turn the focusing knob, and be careful of the lens so that it doesnt touch the slide. It can damage the lens, or break the slide. (1 points) ScoreWhy is it important to keep a microscope covered when youre not using it Answer It is important to keep a microscope

A young man by the name of Euthyphro involves himself in a conversation with the well known Socrates. During this conversation Euthyphro attempts to impose unrealistic beliefs concerning piety. Euthyphro is the plaintiff in a murder suit that he is filing against his very own father. Euthyphro believes that he has a case against his father, the reasons the young man comes up with does not sufficiently satisfy Socrates. This text is a great example of beliefs of a young man; against the wisdom and knowledge of older man. In the final analysis Socrates conversation with Euthyphro, smashes all of Euthyphro’s

In the article understanding “Science and How it Really Works”, It becomes apparent that the Scientific Method is much more involved and dynamic than simply forming a Hypothesis, making observations, conducting an experiment and forming a conclusion based on the data collected. While these processes are the backbone they don’t necessarily always follow one another in a sequence and there is much more involved in each step than one may perceive from the simple list.

Scientist use the what is know as the “Scientific Method” conducting experiments and trying to discover new things. This is done using a five-step process that starts with identifying the problem or desired goal. The next step is to propose a hypothesis followed by making a prediction. The forth step is to test the prediction and the fifth and final step, is to draw a conclusion. and (Postlethwait, J., Hopson, J., 2011). During the fourth step, test the prediction, is the step that most accidental discoveries occur because this is when the scientist is in their experimental phase. It is when you set out to do one thing and the outcome is not unexpected due to a change in the desired effect. While not all accidents are good accidents, throughout

Review the literature. Research can be conducted by the use of external sources, i.e. Internet, books, interviews, pictures, focus groups, and historical accounts just to name a few.

TLRs play a crucial role in mediating protection against pathogens. The interactions between PAMPS and TLRs result in triggering of cellular responses with subsequent production of cytokines and other immunoregulatory molecules leading to induction of innate and adaptive immune responses. Previous studies have demonstrated that TLR ligands can be exploited prophylactically to confer immunity against pathogens (Gomis et al., 2004; Dar et al., 2009; St. Paul et al., 2012c; Barjesteh et al., 2015) and as vaccine adjuvants to enhance adaptive immune responses (Mallick et al., 2011). Although the role of TLR ligands in eliciting innate and adaptive responses has been characterized in the chicken spleen and bursa of Fabricius (St.
