BIO101 EXAM SCRIPT COMPLETE
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS BUNDLED
STUDY MATERIAL
●● LAW
Answer: Scientific Definition: A concise statement, often mathematical,
that describes a universal pattern of observed phenomena under specific
conditions, but does not explain why it happens.
●● THEORY
Answer: Common Definition: A good explanation of something in the
natural world based on facts, experiments, and observations.
●● THEORY
Answer: Scientific Definition A theory is a tested and confirmed
explanation for observations and phenomena
●● HYPOTHESIS
Answer: Common Definition: A statement that is testable with a possible
explanation or a prediction/ phenomenon. Especially in a direct
relationship between different variables.
●● HYPOTHESIS
,Answer: Scientific Definition: Suggested explanation for an observation
that one can test.
●● INDUCTIVE LOGICAL REASONING
Answer: A form of logical thinking that uses related observations to
arrive at a general conclusion.
●● DEDUCTIVE LOGICAL REASONING
Answer: A form of logical thinking that uses general principles or laws
to predict specific results.
●● Simularities between Inductive and Deductive
Answer: Both use thinking to get to the results or conclusion that they
think is correct.
●● Differences between Inductive and Deductive
Answer: Deductive uses set laws, standards, and principles to get a
result.
Inductive uses related observations to get to a general conclusion.
●● DESCRIPTIVE (DISCOVERY) SCIENCE
Answer: Inductive and aims to observe and discover.
Ex. Jane Goodalls study such as recording, observing, and collecting
data to create map of human DNA sequence.
, ●● EXPERIMENTAL (HYPOTHESIS-BASED) SCIENCE
Answer: Deductive and begind with a problem or question with a
possible answer/ solution that one can test.
●● Similarities of Experimental and Descriptive Science
Answer: Both have a goal of discovering through exploration/
experiments and collects data, patterns, and observations.
●● Differences between Experimental and Descriptive Science
Answer: Hypothesis: A question with a possible solution or answer that
is teste to get to that desired goal.
Discovery: Uses data collection to get to a desired goal or answer to a
set question.
●● SCIENCE
Answer: A way of looking at the universe in a logical, objective manner.
Not set in stone complete answer to questions. A dynamic and ever-
changing collection of ideas and understandings.
The knowledge and understanding gained from our study of the world,
using processes of science.
