Study Notes
The Scientific Method
- The scientific method is primarily used to develop and test scientific knowledge and theories through systematic observation, experimentation, and evidence-based reasoning.
- Rigorous skepticism is applied to challenge assumptions, ensure objectivity, and eliminate bias in the scientific process.
Hypothesis and Testing
- A hypothesis is a tentative explanation or prediction made based on limited data and observations, which can be tested and refined through further research.
- A key process in the scientific method involves formulating hypothetical explanations and testing them against empirical observations and data.
- Scientists test hypotheses by conducting experiments or studies to validate or reject them, ensuring that the results are reliable and generalizable.
Classification in Biology
- In biology, organisms are classified into categories based on their characteristics, evolutionary relationships, and other factors.
- Some organisms are grouped into 'guilds' based on their functional roles or ecological niches.
- Species are categorized based on their shared characteristics and reproductive isolation.
- In 'family' classification, organisms can be grouped based on their shared characteristics and evolutionary relationships.
- In 'order' classification, organisms are grouped based on their shared characteristics, morphology, and evolutionary relationships.
- In 'class' classification, organisms are grouped based on their body structure, development, and evolutionary relationships.
- In 'phylum' classification, organisms are grouped based on their body structure, development, and evolutionary relationships.
