  2. Exploration and Discovery • Scientific methodology is closely linked to _______________________________________. • Good scientists often share scientific attitudes or habits. • Curiosity, skepticism, open-mindedness and creativity __________________________________________________________________________________________.

  3. Exploration and Discovery • Sometimes ideas for scientific investigations arise from practical problems. • Technology, science and society are closely linked. Discoveries in one field of science my lead to new technologies. • Technological advances can also have big impacts on daily life.

  4. Communicating Results • ____________________________________are vital to modern science. • Publishing peer-reviewed articles in scientific journals allows researchers to share ideas and to test and evaluate each other’s work. • Once research has been published it enters the pool of information and may spark new questions that leads to new research.

  5. Scientific Theories • Evidence from many scientific studies may support several related hypotheses in a way that inspires researchers to propose a scientific theory that ties those hypotheses together. • The word ___________ applies to a well-tested explanation that unifies a broad range of observation and hypotheses and that enables scientists to make accurate predictions about new situations. • When a theory

  6. Science and Society • What is the relationship between science and society? • Using science involves understanding its context in society and its limitations. • Science is not supposed to ____________________________________________________________________________________________________ • The way that science is applied in society can be affected by bias. A ______ is a particular preference of point of view that is personal rather than scientific.

  7. Science and Society • Science • It is so important to understand how scientists develop ideas, not just memorize facts. • Finally, understanding biology will help you realize that we humans can predicts the consequences of our actions and take an active role in directing our further and that of our planet.
