Unit : One(1) Scientific Study
Science process skills: The fundamental abilities and techniques which are used in scientific inquiry and investigation. are called science process skill.It help the individuals to think critically, make observations, gather and analyze data, form hypotheses, design experiments, and draw conclusions based on evidence.
There are 6 basic science process skills: (1) observation, (2) Classification, (3) Inference(to explain), (4)Measurement , (5) , (6)Prediction ,
.1.Observation:The process of collecting information about an object or event is called observation . The ability of good observation are essential in learning. It help to develop to other process skill i.e. communicating ,classifying, measuring, inference and predicting.it help to act activities using our five senses and special tools i.e.telescope,microscope etc.There are two types of observations: qualitative and quantitative. A qualitative observation describes a quality of an object, such as color smells tastes feels. A quantitative observation describes the amount of an object, for example volume or mass.
2.Communication : The process of sending and receiving of information about an object or event is known as communication. Communication requires a sender and a receiver. It help for communicate in order to share their observation with other .,Person can communicate their observation verbally, in writing, by drawing picture ,graph , chart, maps diagram and visual demonstrations.
3.Classification: The systematic arrangement of the objects in groups or categories according to their fixed criteria is known as classification. After making observation it is important to notice similarities and differences under classification. For example :classification of living and non living .
5.Inference : A conclusion or opinion or explanation that is logically formed through observation, facts, and evidence is known as Inference .It is a link between what is observed and what is already known . For example :The learner will write a conclusion at the end of each investigation .
6.Prediction :A guess about what might happen in the future, based on observations that you make is called prediction .Predicting is closely related to other process skills such as observing, inferring, and classifying.
Examples of predictions:Goals of Scientific learning:
1. Scientific research starts with asking a question.
2. Purpose of research is to get answers of that question.
Stages of scientific learning:The scientific research includes the following five major steps:
2. Hypothesis
3.Theory
4.Experiments
4.Law
1.OBSERVATION:The process of observing natural phenomenon with the help of five senses and the scientific equipment is called observation.
1-Biology: The study of living organisms,is called Biology. The word biology is derived from the greek words /bios/ meaning /life/ and /logos/ meaning /study/ so the study of life and living organisms is known as Biology.

Precautions to be taken while performing experiments in a laboratory :
1.Experiment should be done in presence of a teacher.
2.Inform to the teacher in case of accident.
3.we should know much about the instrument before we use it.
4.We should use chemicals in right amount.
5.We should keep the window open while conducting any experiment .
6.We should always inform to the teachers ,if we have to strong acid .
7.We should not test the the chemicals.
8.We should clean the apparatus.
9.We should clean our hand with soap after the experiment.

Scientific measurement :The process of comparing unknown physical quantity with known standard physical quantity is known as measurement. Here unknown quantity quantity denote to quantity whose value is unknown or numeric value (n) and known or standard known quantity denote to the unit on which measurement is done or unit (u) .Therefore mathematically measurement of quantity = numeric value (n) x unit (u) or Q =nxu

Scientific Notation : The process of presentation of very large numbers or very small numbers in a simple form is knowns as scientific notation. It is difficult to represent a few number in their expanded form .Hence we use scientific notation, for example :100000000 can be written as 108 ,which is the scientific notation and exponent is positive ,similarly, 0.0000001is very number which can be written as 10-8 and the exponent is negative .
Scientific notation are written with three parts
For example 345.445 x 104
1) Coefficient =345.445 2.base =10 3.power or exponent =4 and .445 is known as mantissa
Rules for writing scientific notation .
1.Scientific notation will always consist of a multiplied by a power of ten .
2.The exponent must be a non zero that means it can be either positive or negative.
3.Cofficient can be positive or negative number including whole and decimal number .
2.The mantissa carries the rest of the significant digit of the number.
i) If the given number is multiplies of 10 then the decimal points has to move to the left and the of 10 will be positive ,the power of ten should be increased by one in each shift .For example:
1.6000 =6x103
2. 12345
=1234.5×101 =123.45×102 =12.345×103 =1.2345×104
0.00034 =34 x 0.00001 =34x10-5
=0.0034×10_1 =0.034×10_2 =0.34×10_3 =3.4×10_4
Tetra(T) =1012μ
Giga (G)means = 109
Micro(μ) means= 10-3
Nano(n) means= 10-6
Some small and large measurement :
1-Size of prokaryotes=10-4 mm –10mm
2-Size of Eukaryotes=10-6 μm – 10-4μm
3-Size of molecules =10-9 nm
4-Size of atom=10-10 nm
5-Velocity of light=3x108 m/s
6-Mass of earth=6x1024 kg
7-Mass of sun=2x1030 kg
Precise: The closeness of two or more measurements to each other is known as precise. For example , if you weigh a given substance five times, and get 3.2 kg each time, then your measurement is very precise. The precision of an instrument is inversely proportional to its least count.
