    Study Notes

    Fundamental Concepts of Science and Philosophy

    • The study of matter and its motion is known as Physics.
    • Daoism, a Chinese philosophy and religion, perceives the universe as an uncreated entity, emphasizing harmony with the natural world.

    Evolution and Change

    • The process of gradual change over many generations is termed Evolution. It describes how species adapt and transform over time through natural selection and genetic variation.

    Earth Sciences

    • The solid features of any terrestrial planet fall under the field of Geology, which examines the planet's structure, composition, and processes.

    Cosmology

    • The Big Bang theory explains the origin of the universe, proposing that it began from an extremely dense and hot state approximately 13.8 billion years ago and has been expanding ever since.

    Chemistry

    • The study concerned with the composition, structure, properties, and change of matter is called Chemistry. This field explores how substances interact, react, and transform into different materials.
