From lecture 1.1: Which of the following ancient civilizations developed sophisticated
mathematics and technical knowledge? - answer-All of the above (The ancient
Babylonian civilization, Ancient Egypt, India, China)
From Lecture 1.1: In Europe in the middle ages which dread disease forced medical
practitioners to confront the failings of classical knowledge and begin a new focus on
practical applications and experiments? - answer-The Black Death (Sylvatic plague)
From lecture 1.1: Match the following scientific terms to the correct definition.
1. a type of logical thinking where you draw general conclusions or predictions based on
specific observations or patterns
2. a scientific procedure undertaken to make a discovery, test a hypothesis, or
demonstrate a known fact.
3. the ability to understand something immediately, without conscious reasoning or
evidence, often described as a "gut feeling" or "inner knowing". It's a quick, often
unconscious process that draws on past experiences and knowledge to form judgments
or insights.
4. a logical process where you draw specific conclusions from general premises or
assumptions, ensuring that if the premises are true, the conclusion must also be true.
5. the act of measuring or judging the size or amount of something. - answer-1. Inductive
Reasoning 2. Experiment 3. Intuition 4. Deductive Reasoning 5. Quantification
From Lecture 1.1: Which of the following was Charles Darwin's Theory of Natural
Selection (where he expressed a very broad and general theory with specific examples)?
- answer-A case could be made for either one (Deductive + Inductive Reasoning)
, From lecture 1.1 Which of the following is the ideal starting point to do science? -
answer-All of the above - science is a circular 'iterative' process. (experiment,
hypothesis, prediction, observation, etc.)
From lecture 1.2: What mediums have been used to explore questions of the human
condition and ask 'what if' questions - with the hope of entertaining, inspiring curiosity,
and sometimes critiquing our society? - answer-Science Fiction

76, 83, 83, 85, 97, 103, 121 - answer-92.6
From lecture 1.2. What would the mode be for these weights of Havanese puppies?
76, 83, 83, 85, 97, 103, 121 - answer-83
From lecture 1.2: Why do biologists obsess over measurements of living things and were
largely responsible for the invention of statistics? - answer-Biologists came head up
against the problem of living things being so inherently variable.
From lecture 1.2: What would the range be for these weights of Havanese puppies?
76, 83, 83, 85, 97, 103, 121 - answer-45
From lecture 1.2: Calculate the standard deviation of this data (Havanese Puppy
weight):
76, 83, 83, 85, 97, 103, 121
*Note here you can use a spreadsheet if it helps you. - answer-15.6
From lecture 1.2:
Would it be more typical for a havanese puppy to be within one standard deviation of
the mean weight or outside of three standard deviations of the mean weight? Expressed
