Scientific Knowledge
Lesson 1
![Page 2: Scientific Knowledge Lesson 1. Types of Science Biology – study of living things Geology – study of the Earth and processes Physical Science – study of.](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022072011/56649e375503460f94b26ee9/html5/thumbnails/2.jpg)
Types of Science• Biology – study of living things
• Geology – study of the Earth and processes
• Physical Science – study of non-living matter and energy

Science is ALWAYS changing
• Theory- explanations supported by evidence. It is well-supported… thousands of trials
• Theory of Plate Tectonics• Big Bang Theory• Cell Theory• Flat Earth Theory• Geocentric Theory of Planets

Scientific Laws
• A scientific law – a description of a relationship that is true anywhere in the universe.
• Boyle’s Law
• Law of Gravity
• Newton’s Laws

Theory vs. Law
• A scientific law describes what happens in nature, BUT a scientific theory describes for what reasons it happens.
• A theory tells WHY, a law tells WHAT

Where do scientists get their evidence?
Empirical evidence is all the measurements and data scientist gather in support of a scientific explanation.
• Field work- outdoors in a natural environment
• Lab work- controlled environment

How do scientific ideas change?
Remember science knowledge is what is agreed upon and are the most-likely explanations for what we see, such as the ATOM THEORY.
• New evidence with better technology (microscopes)
• Collaboration and debate– working with others and evaluating ideas.

Debate and Collaboration
• Scientists work together and share information
• They meet together to question every idea
• Discussing ideas ensures the results are reliable and error-free
