Ex.3. Do you know…
Why is Biology a science? How can we call people that study biology? What is the difference between hypothesis, theory and law? What is an organism? What are ecosystems?
Biology is a science since it takes care to interpret the nature, according to the scientific method, which establishes the resolution of hypotheses raised by the researcher, by means of using different techniques for the creation of representative models of nature. People that study biology are known as biologists. Theory is an explanation that is broader in scope than a hypothesis, generates new hypotheses, and is supported by a large body of evidence. The difference between a hypothesis a theory and a law there are very distinct. A hypothesis is a statement that can be tested. A theory is a statement that has not been tested. A law is a statement that is relevant and is true. Organism is a creature such as a plant, animal or a single-celled life form, or something that has interdependent parts and that is being compared to a living creature. Ecosystem is all the organisms in a given area as well as the abiotic factors with which they interact; one or more communities and the physical environment around them.

b. It is a variable that stands alone and isn't changed by the other variables you are trying to measure.
c. A type of logic in which specific results are predicted from a general premise.
d. 1. Observation 2. Hypothesis 3. Prediction 4. Experiment/Test 5. Controls 6. Conclusion
