What does science study?

Answer 1

A Brief Description of Science

Science seeks to understand how nature behaves by observing and correlating available factual information. Our understanding of science is therefore based upon, and limited by, the factual information available. In science, fact-based explanations are called "theories." Theories may be good, bad, or indifferent. It all depends on the accuracy and amount of the factual information available, and how logically these facts are interpreted. Consider the Piltdown hoax as an example: The fact is that a skull with a homo sapiens cranium and jaw bone of an ape was found in 1912. At that time there was very little factual information, in terms of similar fossils and radiological dating methods, available to corroborate whether or not Piltdown was a legitimate fossil. As additional factual information became available, scientists determined that Piltdown was a hoax.

The characterization of evolution as "only a theory, not fact" is a gross distortion of the meaning of the words "theory" and "fact." The term "fact" should be limited to what can be observed. It is the job of the scientist to determine the accuracy of this factual information and how it can be used to increase our knowledge of how nature behaves.

The natural sciences do not deal with matters involving religion, philosophy, and politics. Although evolution is incompatible with with some sectarian religious dogma, there is nothing in evolution that rules out the existence of God. Darwin's theory of natural selection has been falsely interpreted to apply to the philosophical concept of "Social Darwinism," which states that those who believe in the validity of evolution must necessarily support the politics of "might makes right."

Creationists believe that if a person believes that people are descended from primitive ancestors, he/she will behave as an animal, instead of an enlightened human being. There is nothing in the history of human events to support this allegation. It is bigotry, pure and simple.

Answer 2

Are you just joking or serious? Do you mean what work is being done in the field of science or are you asking of science has homework and you are assuming that science is an actual person. I am going to ignore the second possibility and go with the first one. Science studies everything that we wanted to know. Astronomy studies how the stars move because many people are curious about stars and other celestial objects. Geology studes the rocks and the earth because some people are curious about rocks and the earth. Biology is the study of all living things. There are subdivisions of biology such as zoology which is the study of animals, botany which is the study of plants, micobiology which is the study of microscopic living things, paleozoology that is the study of animals that have died. There are many other subdivisions. There is volcanology which is the study of volcanos. Anything that something has ever wanted to know about is a science.

Answer 3

Everything has a science based on it from biology (the study of life) to escatology (the study of the end of the world).

Answer 4

The natural universe, and everything in it.

You can really apply the scientific method for anything, but it only works on things that actually exist, and it can be somewhat cumbersome to use for some other things.
