For life science, the. s~i~.r!ists. _ are Q and A called zoologists, botanists,' and ecolog1~ts. How does a scientist work? The zoologist takes charge · of all'· the animals. The botanist handles the plants. The ecologist stewards nature and takes care of the surroundings. Famous Scientists and Inventions If you cannot decide yet, here are some of the scientists and inventors who have made significant contributions that impact the world today. Here are some of the famous and remarkable scientists and inventors: Her. investigation was in chemistry, specifically in the field of food technology. :.. ,..... I. She experimented with Filipino cuisine and · invented Soyalac, a nutrient-rich drink m~de from soybeans, and darak,· rice biscuits Maria Ylagan Orosa containing. vitamin B.;.1, which , prevents beriberi sickness during WWU. ·...1 She was the first to bring banana ketchup to.I the general audience. · \. · Her work was focused on I the·· branch of biology; in the field of medicine.

Using bamboo, she i~ented.an. incubator specifically designed for places without electrical power.. Dr. Fe V. Del Mundo 18.I His research applied the science of biology- botany in the field of ho'rticulture. ·. His research focused on inducing the flowering of mangoes out.of season (April-May} using l potassium nitrate, which led to fruiting several. times a year without harming the plan~s. He also chose to not file.a pat~nt for his Ramon C. Barba research so that farmers were free to use his research at no cost. ' · ---:-_------=- ----- a He is scientist and_inventor in the branch of · physics in the field of computer technology. IHis first major accomplishment was the design and invention of the first single-chip 16-bit microprocessor-based calculator that led him to develop the. first system logic Engr. Diosdad~ chip set:for·International Busim~ss. Machines ,/ Banatao ,. Corporation (IBM). This was the firstyvindows. graphics. accelerator chip. for personal computers (PCs).. · · _He.was a British. naturalist and biologist. ~ '. He. was : known. for his contribution '. ~ to. the devel~pment o~ hi~ theory of evolution.·and natural selection. · He wrote some influential books.. such.. as Fertilisation ~f Orchids, On.the Movements and Habits of Clif!1bing Plants,.Insectivorous Plants, and his famous The Formation of. Vegetable Mould Through the Action · of. Charles Robert Worms, with Observations on Their Habits. Darwin · He published On the Origin of Specie$ by.
