Discovery ScienceDiscovery science
Describes natural structures and processes as accurately as possible through careful observation and analysis of data
Data Are recorded observations Can be quantitative or qualitative
![Page 3: Chapter 1. Figure 1.24 Discovery Science zDiscovery science yDescribes natural structures and processes as accurately as possible through careful observation.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062517/56649f085503460f94c1d509/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Hypothesis-Based Science
In science, inquiry that asks specific questions Usually involves the proposing and testing of
hypothetical explanations, or hypotheses
In science, a hypothesis Is a tentative answer to a well-framed question,
an explanation on trial Makes predictions that can be tested
![Page 4: Chapter 1. Figure 1.24 Discovery Science zDiscovery science yDescribes natural structures and processes as accurately as possible through careful observation.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062517/56649f085503460f94c1d509/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
In this case study Mimicry in king snakes is examined The hypothesis predicts that predators in non–coral
snake areas will attack king snakes more frequently than will predators that live where coral snakes are present

Field Experiments with Artificial Snakes To test this mimicry hypothesis
Researchers made hundreds of artificial snakes, an experimental group resembling king snakes and a control group of plain brown snakes
(a) Artificial king snake
(b) Brown artificial snake that has been attackedFigure 1.28

After a given period of time
The researchers collected data that fit a key prediction

Limitations of Science
Science cannot address supernatural phenomena Because hypotheses must be testable and
falsifiable and experimental results must be repeatable
![Page 8: Chapter 1. Figure 1.24 Discovery Science zDiscovery science yDescribes natural structures and processes as accurately as possible through careful observation.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062517/56649f085503460f94c1d509/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Concept of Scale The study of life extends from the microscope scale of
molecules and cells to the global scale of the entire living planet

Feedback Regulation: Negative
Accumulation of an end product of a process slows that process
Example: sugar breakdown generates ATP; excess ATP inhibits an enzyme near the beginning of the pathway
![Page 11: Chapter 1. Figure 1.24 Discovery Science zDiscovery science yDescribes natural structures and processes as accurately as possible through careful observation.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062517/56649f085503460f94c1d509/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Feedback Regulation: Positive
An end product speeds up its production
Example: blood clotting in response to injury

Grouping Species
Taxonomy (classifying life) Is the branch of
biology that names and classifies species according to a system of broader and broader groups
Species Genus Family Order Class Phylum Kingdom Domain
Mammalia
Ursusameri-canus(Americanblack bear)
Ursus
Ursidae
Carnivora
Chordata
Animalia
Eukarya

The Three Domains of Life
At the highest level, life is classified into three domains: Bacteria (prokaryotes) Archaea (prokaryotes) Eukarya (eukaryotes)
Eukaryotes include protists and the kingdoms Plantae, Fungi, and Animalia
