![Page 6: Introduction to the world of science](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022100507/5584f498d8b42a30708b4fc7/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Science is…a systematized body of
knowledge that is based on facts gathered through observations, experiences and experiments in order to formulate a verifiable conclusion or law that serves as basis of technology for the benefit of man and his environment.

What is Biological science?
the scientific study of life or living things
![Page 11: Introduction to the world of science](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022100507/5584f498d8b42a30708b4fc7/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
What is Physical science?
It deals with the study of nonliving things.
![Page 12: Introduction to the world of science](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022100507/5584f498d8b42a30708b4fc7/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
What is Physics? It deals with the understanding of
the fundamental laws of nature. The branch of science concerned
with the properties of matter and energy and the relationships between them. It is based on mathematics and traditionally includes mechanics, optics, electricity and magnetism, acoustics, and heat.

It is a way of thinking.It makes you ask “why?” all the time.

Why does Physics can not be considered as a natural philosophy?
because it employs the scientific method

What is Scientific Method?
It is the application of a logical process of reasoning to arrive at a certain law or principle that is consistent with experimental results.
