Questions that have no right or wrong answers can’t be answered by Science. For example, religions or personal beliefs.

Lisa

Social behavior, mind activities, psychological stuff

Angel

Religions, constellations, etc that are superstitious can’t be answered by science since there isn’t a right or wrong.

Anderson

This question. This question most likely can't be answered by science.

moral questions

Aurora

11i5391_2 — 2023-11-16 02:23:44 UTC

Anything related to social relationships among people can't be totally answered

emotions, feeling, undefined events, theology. Anything that we don't thing exist or undefined that exist.

Eric & Jenny

2023-11-16 02:23:54 UTC

Our group, we think science cannot answer questions in theology. Science is perceived as the most logical, rational, practice of all. Scientists conduct experiments and formulate formula to justify things, however, theological wise, they cannot prove the functions, their origins etc

I think that the questions around society, and human being(interaction between humans) is not able to describe by natural science

Michael

2023-11-16 02:25:03 UTC

In my opinion, science cannot answer ethical question because science theory doesn’t include all emotions, personality, and moral issues.

things unnatural, unusal, can't be seen, abstract

Always beyond the ability of science: 2, 4, 7

Maybe one day: 1, 3, 5, 6, 8, 9

We think that the growth of science knowledge display as graph D before 2000 and as the rapid development of technology, the graph will become graph B.

Angel, Zoe

11i501_3 — 2023-11-16 03:02:04 UTC

Graph 4 best represents the way human scientific knowledge develop since it is impossible that the speed of the growth remains the same throughout a period of time. As a result of this, graph 1 is considered the most unsuitable trend for the way human scientific knowledge develop.

Aurora & Lisa & Nanami

11i5391_2 — 2023-11-16 03:20:50 UTC

We believe the graph that bet represent the growth of science is the combination of graph C and graph D considering graph C to contain the zoomed out version of graph D. We believed the development to happen through various studies done in science, which forms a very curvy line like graph D for new discoveries will possibly be made each time. Looking it in a long term, it becomes C because the knowledge of science adds on to each other and form new knowledge.

Brian Jonathan Jenny Eric

2023-11-16 03:24:58 UTC

Jonathan and Jenny think graph D would be the most possible condition, while Brian and Eric think graph C is the most realistic choice.

A biologist describe scientific method by making observations.

Lisa

2023-11-16 03:46:31 UTC

Chemist

Chemist would describe scientific methods by observing simulations and conducting experiments. We would refer back to the periodic table and calculate numbers.

Focus on “how” things were made, and “how” they reacted with each other

Angel

First, a research question and hypothesis is required for an experiment. Then link back to the research question and hypothesis while the experiment. If there is a error within the experiment, then we’ll need to determine what is wrong. Adjust the concentration, material, etc accordingly to the error predicted.

A biologist focus on observing the process and change of the experiment.

Aurora

How would a biologist describe the scientific method?

Generally speaking, the scientific method is the process of finding the thing that triggers interest in the conclusion made from the designed experiment.

What aspect of SM does a biologist focus on? Why?

I think planning & designing the experiment are the parts biologists focus on because these are the steps that directly affect the conclusion made.

How would a psychologist describe the scientific method?

Differing from biology, psychology is done and experimented often because of an unknown issue being observed and people wanted to find out about the reason for it. To add on, the conclusion is often time not fixed.

What aspect of SM does a psychologist focus on? Why?

One of the most important things psychological experiment take into consideration is the ethical considerations because most experiment involves living animals.

Zoe

11i501_3 — 2023-11-16 03:51:40 UTC

Biologist would first come up with a research question. Then, base on their own knowledge, they would generate a possible hypothesis. Then they would do an experiment and develop a solution base on their observation from the experiment which enable biologists to prove or disprove their hypothesis.

Biologist mainly focus on the observation of the nature and changes.

Nanami

11i537_3 — 2023-11-16 04:04:31 UTC

How would biology describe scientific method?

They would make their experiment around living thing, and do the observations, and make hypothesis, and do the experiment. The unique thing in biology experiment is that it’s relating to dissection. Finally, leads to conclusion

Biology

focus accuracy, control valuable, experiment.

They focus on things that from experiment that unique as something might be part of chemistry, but really relates to living thing, which is combination with other science field.
