To determine:
The evident major theme for the statement given in the book: “other organisms may compete with an individual for food and other
Introduction:
The interaction of an individual with its environment is affected by many factors such as biotic factors and abiotic factors. Biotic factors cause making up of the living components of an area. Such as other organisms may compete with an individual for food and other resources, prey upon it, or change it physical and chemical environment. Abiotic factors contain non-living components including physical and chemical factors that are light, water, minerals, temperature, and air.

- 1. Explain the following terms: Nature of science, History of science, Philosophy of science, science as products, science as process 2. Why should the pre-service teacher s be taught nature of science, history of science and philosophy of science? 3. State the descriptive characteristics of scientific knowledge 4. Explain, with appropriate examples, landmarks in history of science. 5. Explain the terms inductive and deductive reasoning and bring out the difference (s) between them. What is the scientific method? Outline the steps involved in the method. 6. Why should the science teacher be mindful of the history of science and philosophy of science during classroom instruction? 7. Describe the scientific community (include characteristics of scientific community). 8. Why will you say that science is a social product? 9. Explain the term integrated science. 10.

The larger cell act as a host and the smaller cell is called the endosymbiont that is engulfed by the host cell. The larger cell referred to eukaryotic cell and the smaller cell represent prokaryotic cell. While BIOCHEMISTRY, is the study of the chemistry of cells and organisms. Thus, it is concerned with the types of molecules found in biological systems, their structure, and their chemical properties. QUESTIONS: Relate how this theory (ENDOSYMBIOTIC THEORY) can applies to this course subject (BIOCHEMISTRY)? Note: Answer properly, make a connection how theory can ber applied to the subject.arrow_forwardThe Scientific Revolution, starting with Copernicus in the 15th century and ending with Newton in the early 18th century, would have profound impact as it heralded the birth of modern science and the scientific method. The result was important advances in the basic sciences as well as medicine itself in Europe during this period (15th through the 18th century) that would make possible the prevention and cure of diseases. Define the Scientific Method and discuss how it relates to advances in medicine ((hint: microscopy, anatomy, chemistry and the study of specific diseases).arrow_forward
