What is science ?
systematic study of nature and how it affects us and the environment. The study of plants, animals, the environment including the universe.
Though the study of science, we learn to solve existing problems and to make our world a better place to live in.
The table below shows some examples of the branches of science. Branch of Area of study Science Living organisms, includes both Biology

The study and practice of science involve in three major elements- attitudes, processes or methods and products.
Attitudes : Show how you think and feel Processes / method : A series of things that are done in order to achieve a particular result Product : the information and ideas of science that . recorded as scientific knowledge have been
Inference- a statement after many discussions based on observation and measurements Hypothesis- an explanation before conducting an experiment.
Scientific Method
Scientific method is a way that used by the researchers to solve the problem.
Scientists use a series of steps called scientific method to solve a problems.
Problem
A problem is a question based upon observations.
Observations
Information about the problem.
Hypothesis
A suggested solution to the problem.
IfThen
Experiment
A procedure to test the hypothesis.
Control experiment
Data
Results of the experiment.
Conclusion
The answer to the hypothesis.
Retest
In order to verify the results, experiments must be retested.

the impact of detergent on fish
Design an experiment 1. Give label A and B on the glasses. ,Fill each glass with 50 ml of water 2. Put fish in glass A and B and add 5 drops of detergent to glass B. And observe the fish in each glass for 5 minutes and see whether the fish stay a live or die. 3. Note the observation in table Observation table

Answer the question below: 1. under which condition (fresh water or water + detergent) do fish live 2. under which condition (fresh water + detergent ) do fish die.
Analysis and application Check your hypothesis. Does it support your data. Explain And give reason How do water and detergent bring impact on the live of fish. Conclusion: To draw conclusion you must fit it with the result of your experiment
