2. NATURAL SCIENCES
Sciences that deals with matter and energy, or
with objects and processes observable in nature
the term natural science refers to a rational
approach to the study of the universe, which is
understood as obeying rules or laws of natural
origin
The term natural science is also used to
distinguish those fields that use the
scientific method to study nature
3. Natural Sciences
the phrase natural sciences is also
sometimes used more narrowly to refer to
its everyday usage, that is, related to
natural history
In this sense "natural sciences" may refer
to the biological sciences and perhaps also
the earth sciences, as distinguished from
the physical sciences, including astronomy,
physics, and chemistry.
4. History of Natural Sciences
Prior to the 17th century, the objective study of
nature was known as natural philosophy.
Over the next two centuries, however, a
philosophical interpretation of nature was
gradually replaced by a scientific approach using
inductive methodology.
The works of Sir Francis Bacon popularized this
approach, thereby helping to forge the scientific
revolution.
5. History of Natural Sciences
By the 19th century the study of science
had come into the purview of professionals
and institutions, and in so doing it
gradually acquired the more modern name
of natural science.
6. MATHEMATICS
is the body of knowledge centered on such
concepts as quantity, structure, space, and change
, and also the academic discipline that studies
them
Benjamin Peirce called it "the science that draws
necessary conclusion.”
Mathematics is the science of pattern, and that
mathematicians seek out patterns whether found
in numbers, space, science, computers, imaginary
abstractions, or elsewhere
7. Mathematics
The word "mathematics" comes from the
Greek (máthēma), which means learning,
study, science, and additionally came to
have the narrower and more technical
meaning "mathematical study“.
8. History
The evolution of mathematics might be seen as an
ever-increasing series of abstractions, or
alternatively an expansion of subject matter.
The first abstraction was probably that of numbers.
The realization that two apples and two oranges
have something in common was a breakthrough in
human thought. In addition to recognizing how to
count physical objects, prehistoric peoples also
recognized how to count abstract quantities, like
time — days, seasons, years. Arithmetic (addition,
subtraction, multiplication and division), naturally
followed.
9. Monolithic monuments testify to knowledge of
geometry.

monuments testify to knowledge of geometry.
11. Quantity
starts with numbers
first the familiar natural numbers and
integers and arithmetical operations on
them, which are characterized in
arithmetic.
The deeper properties of integers are
studied in number theory.
12. Quantity
As the number system is further developed,
the integers are recognized as a subset of
the rational numbers ("fractions").
These, in turn, are contained within the real
numbers, which are used to represent
continuous quantities.
Real numbers are generalized to complex
numbers.
13. Structure
Many mathematical objects, such as sets of
numbers and functions, exhibit internal
structure
The structural properties of these objects
are investigated in the study of groups,
rings, fields and other abstract systems,
which are themselves such objects.
This is the field of abstract algebra
14. Space
The study of space originates with
geometry
Trigonometry combines space and
numbers, and encompasses the well-known
Pythagorean theorem.
15. Change
Understanding and describing change is a
common theme in the natural sciences and
calculus.
Functions arise here, as a central concept
describing a changing quantity. The
rigorous study of real numbers and real-
valued functions is known as real analysis,
with complex analysis the equivalent field
for the complex numbers.
16. Major Fields in Mathematics
Discrete mathematics
- is the common name for the fields of
mathematics most generally useful in
theoretical computer science. This includes
computability theory, computational
complexity theory, and information theory.
17. Applied mathematics
- considers the use of abstract mathematical
tools in solving concrete problems in the
sciences, business, and other areas.
- An important field in applied mathematics is
statistics, which uses probability theory as a tool
and allows the description, analysis, and
prediction of phenomena
18. Sir Isaac Newton (1643-
Euclid,Greek 1727), an inventor of
mathematician, 3rd infinitesimal calculus.
century BC
19. ASTRONOMY AND ALLIED SCIENCES
• Is the scientific study of
celestial objects
•literally means "law of the stars"
•and is derived from the Greek ,
from the words (astron, "star")
and (nomos, "laws or cultures").
•It is concerned with the
evolution, physics, chemistry,
meteorology, and motion of
celestial objects, as well as the
formation and development of the
universe.
20. Astronomy
is one of the oldest sciences.
Astronomers of early civilizations performed
methodical observations of the night sky, and
astronomical artifacts have been found from
much earlier periods.
the invention of the telescope was required before
astronomy was able to develop into a modern
science.
It has included disciplines as diverse as
astrometry, celestial navigation, observational
astronomy, the making of calendars, and even
astrology
21. Since the 20th century, the field of professional
astronomy split into observational and
theoretical branches.
Observational astronomy is focused on
acquiring and analyzing data, mainly using basic
principles of physics.
Theoretical astronomy is oriented towards the
development of computer or analytical models to
describe astronomical objects and phenomena.
The two fields complement each other, with
theoretical astronomy seeking to explain the
observational results, and observations being
used to confirm theoretical results.
22. As civilizations developed, astronomical
observatories were assembled
and ideas on the nature of the universe
began to be explored.
early astronomy actually consisted of
mapping the positions of the stars and
planets, a science now referred to as
astrometry.
23. notable astronomical discoveries
the obliquity of the ecliptic was estimated
as early as 1000 BC by the Chinese.
The Chaldeans discovered that lunar
eclipses recurred in a repeating cycle
known as a saros.
In the 2nd century BC, the size and
distance of the Moon were estimated by
Hipparchus.
24. During the Middle Ages…
observational astronomy was mostly
stagnant in medieval Europe, at least until
the 13th century
Astronomers during that time introduced
many Arabic names that are now used for
individual stars.
25. During the Renaissance..
Scientific revolution
Nicolaus Copernicus
proposed a heliocentric
model of the solar system.
His work was defended,
expanded upon, and
corrected by Galileo
Galilei and Johannes
Kepler.
Galileo innovated by using
telescopes to enhance his
observations.
26. Observational astronomy
information is
mainly received
from the detection
and analysis of
visible light or other
regions of the
electromagnetic
radiation
27. Subfield of astronomy for specific
astronomical objects
Solar astronomy Planetary science
28. Stellar •Galactic
astronomy astronomy And
Extragalactic
astronomy
•Cosmology
29. Biology
Biology
•from Greek: bio,
"life"; and
•logos, "speech" lit.
"to talk about life“
• also referred to as
the biological
sciences, which is
the scientific study
of life.
30. Biology
encompasses a set of disciplines that examines
phenomena related to living organisms. The scale
of study can range from sub-component
biophysics up to complex ecologies.
is concerned with the characteristics,
classification and behaviors of organisms, as well
as how species were formed and their interactions
with each other and the natural environment.
31. Biological fields
they are grouped by the type of organism
being studied
botany, the study of plants
zoology, the study of animals
microbiology, the study of
microorganisms.
32. Further divided fields for
Biology
based on the scale at which organisms are
studied
Based on the methods used to study them
biochemistry examines the fundamental
chemistry of life
molecular biology studies the complex
interactions of systems of biological
molecules
33. Further divided fields for
Biology
cellular biology examines the basic
building block of all life, the cell
physiology examines the physical and
chemical functions of the tissues and organ
systems of an organism
ecology examines how various organisms
and their environment interrelate.
34. History of Biology
The biological fields of botany, zoology, and
medicine date back to early periods of civilization
while microbiology was introduced in the 17th
century with the invention of the microscope.
In 19th century, biology became a unified
science; once scientists discovered commonalities
between all living things it was decided they were
best studied as a whole
35. Some key developments in the science of
Biology
were the discovery of genetics
Darwin's theory of evolution through
natural selection
the germ theory of disease
the application of the techniques of
chemistry and physics at the level of the
cell or organic molecule.
36. Modern Biology
is divided into sub-disciplines by the type
of organism and by the scale being studied.
Molecular biology is the study of the
fundamental chemistry of life
Cellular biology is the examination of the
cell; the basic building block of all life
37. Modern Biology
Physiology looks at the internal structure
of organism
Ecology looks at how various organisms
interrelate.
39. Chemistry
from Egyptian kēme (chem), meaning "earth"
is the science concerned with the composition,
structure, and properties of matter, as well as the
changes it undergoes during chemical reactions
Chemistry is the study of interactions of chemical
substances with one another and energy
40. Chemistry
the scientific study of interaction of
substances called chemical substances that
are constituted of atoms
or the subatomic components that make up
atoms: protons, electrons and neutrons
41. History
The genesis of chemistry can be traced to the
widely observed phenomenon of burning that led
to metallurgy- the art and science of processing
ores to get metals
The greed for gold led to the discovery of the
process for its purification, even though, the
underlying principles were not well understood --
it was thought to be a transformation rather than
purification.
42. Historically, modern chemistry evolved out of
alchemy following the chemical revolution
(1773).
Chemistry is a physical science related to studies
of various atoms, molecules, crystals and other
aggregates of matter whether in isolation or
combination, which incorporates the concepts of
energy and entropy in relation to the spontaneity
of chemical processes.
43. Disciplines within Chemistry
are traditionally grouped by the type of
matter being studied or the kind of study
These include inorganic chemistry, the
study of inorganic matter
organic chemistry, the study of organic
matter
biochemistry, the study of substances
found in biological organisms
44. physical chemistry, the energy related
studies of chemical systems at macro,
molecular and submolecular scales
analytical chemistry, the analysis of
material samples to gain an understanding
of their chemical composition and structure
neurochemistry the chemical study of the
mind
45. Physics
• is the science studying the concept of matter and its
motion as well as space and time
• the science that deals with concepts such as force,
energy, mass, and charge.
• is an experimental science, and it is the objective of
physicists to understand some quality of the natural world
46. Physics
is one of the oldest academic disciplines
and through its modern subfield of
astronomy, it may be the oldest of all
During the last two millennia, these
sciences became more distinct; physics
emerged as a modern science in the 17th
century
48. Classical mechanics
is a model of the physics
of forces acting upon
bodies
It is often referred to as
"Newtonian mechanics"
after Isaac Newton and
his laws of motion
49. Electromagnetism
describes the interaction of
charged particles with
electric and magnetic fields.
It can be divided into
electrostatics, the study of
interactions between
charges at rest, and
electrodynamics, the study
of interactions between
moving charges and
radiation
50. Relativity
is a generalization of
classical mechanics
that describes fast-
moving or very
massive systems
51. Quantum
Mechanics
is the branch of
physics treating
atomic and subatomic
systems and their
interaction with
radiation in terms of
observable quantities.
52. Condensed
matter
physics
is the field of
physics that deals
with the
macroscopic
physical properties
of matter.
is by far the largest
field of
contemporary
physics
53. Atomic, molecular, and optical
Atomic, molecular, and
optical physics (AMO) is
the study of matter-matter
and light-matter
interactions on the scale
of single atoms or
structures containing a
few atoms.
54. Earth Science
also known as geoscience, the
geosciences or the Earth Sciences
is an all-embracing term for the
sciences related to the planet Earth
including geology, geophysics,
hydrology, meteorology, physical
geography, oceanography, and soil
science.
55. History
the theory of plate tectonics in the 1960s,
which has had a similar impact on the
Earth sciences as the theory of evolution
had on biology
19th century, paleontology, blossomed
20th century, the growth of other
disciplines like geophysics
56. Earth sciences today are closely linked to
climate research and the petroleum and
mineral exploration industries
The major historic disciplines use physics,
geology, geography, meteorology,
mathematics, chemistry and biology to
build a quantitative understanding of the
principal areas or spheres of the Earth
system.
57. Geology describes the rocky parts of the Earth's
crust (or lithosphere) and its historic
development. Major subdisciplines are
mineralogy and petrology,geochemistry,
geomorphology, paleontology, stratigraphy,
structural geology, engineering geology
Geophysics and Geodesy investigate the
figure of the Earth, its reaction to forces and its
magnetic and gravity fields
Geophysicists explore the Earth's core and
mantle as well as the tectonic and seismic activity
of the lithosphere
58. Soil science covers the outermost layer of the
Earth's crust that is subject to soil formation
processes (or pedosphere). Major subdisciplines
include edaphology and pedology
Oceanography and hydrology (includes
limnology) describe the marine and freshwater
domains of the watery parts of the Earth (or
hydrosphere). Major subdisciplines include
hydrogeology and physical, chemical, and
biological oceanography.
59. Glaciology covers the icy parts of the Earth
(or cryosphere).
Atmospheric sciences cover the gaseous
parts of the Earth (or atmosphere) between
the surface and the exosphere (~1000 km).
Major subdisciplines are meteorology,
climatology, atmospheric chemistry and
atmospheric physics
60. PALEONTOLOGY
(from Greek: paleo, "ancient"; ontos, "being";
and logos, "knowledge")
is the study of prehistoric life forms on Earth
through the examination of plant and animal
fossils
This includes the study of body fossils, tracks (
ichnites), burrows, cast-off parts, fossilized fasces
(coprolites), palynomorphs and chemical
residues. Studies of prehistoric hominids, their
culture and their behaviors are the purview of two
other disciplines, archaeology and
paleoanthropology.
61. The major subdivisions of
paleontology
include paleozoology (animals),
paleobotany (plants)
micropaleontology (microfossils).
Paleozoologists may specialize in
invertebrate paleontology, which deals
with animals without backbones
62. in vertebrate paleontology, dealing with
fossils of animals with backbones,
including fossil hominids (
paleoanthropology).
Micropaleontologists study microscopic
fossils, including organic-walled
microfossils whose study is called
palynology.
63. Developing Specialties in
Paleontology
paleobiology, paleoecology, ichnology (the
study of tracks and burrows) and
taphonomy (the study of what happens to
organisms after they expire).
Major areas of study include the
correlation of rock strata with their
geologic ages and the study of evolution of
lifeforms.
64. The primary
economic
importance of
paleontology lies in
the use of fossils to
determine the age
and nature of the
rocks that contain
them or the layers
above or below.
65. Paleozoology
also spelled as palaeozoology
(Greek: paleon = old and zoon
= animal),
is the branch of paleontology or
paleobiology dealing with the
recovery and identification of
multicellular animal remains
from geological (or even
archeological) contexts, and the
use of these fossils in the
reconstruction of prehistoric
environments and ancient
ecosystems
67. Botany
is the scientific study of plant life.
As a branch of biology, it is also called plant
science(s), phytology, or plant biology.
Botany covers a wide range of scientific
disciplines that study plants, algae, and fungi
including: structure, growth, reproduction,
metabolism, development, diseases, and
chemical properties and evolutionary
relationships between the different groups
68. History
The study of plants and botany began with
tribal lore, used to identify edible,
medicinal and poisonous plants, making
botany one of the oldest sciences.
From this ancient interest in plants, the
scope of botany has increased to include
the study of over 550,000 kinds or species
of living organisms.
69. Historically, botany covers all organisms that
were not considered to be animals.
Some of these "plant-like" organisms include
fungi (studied in mycology), bacteria and viruses
(studied in microbiology), and algae (studied in
phycology).
Most algae, fungi, and microbes are no longer
considered to be in the plant kingdom. However,
attention is still given to them by botanists, and
bacteria, fungi, and algae are usually covered in
introductory botany courses.
70. The study of plants has importance for a number of
reasons.
Plants are a fundamental part of life on Earth.
They generate the oxygen, food, fibres, fuel and
medicine that allow higher life forms to exist.
Plants also absorb carbon dioxide through
photosynthesis, a minor greenhouse gas that in large
amounts can effect global climate.
It is believed that the evolution of plants has changed
the global atmosphere of the earth early in the earth's
history and paleobotanists study ancient plants in the
fossil record.
71. Scope of botany
- human nutrition
- fundamental life
processes
- medicine and
materials
- environmental
changes
72. Subdisciplines of Botany

75. Zoology
Zoology (from
Greek: zoion,
"animal"; and logos,
"knowledge")
is the biological
discipline which
involves the study of
animals.
76. Subfields of Zoology
Comparative anatomy studies the structure
of animals
The physiology of animals is studied under
various fields including anatomy and
embryology
The common genetic and developmental
mechanisms of animals and plants is
studied in molecular biology, molecular
genetics and developmental biology
Ethology is the study of animal behavior.
77. History of Zoology
Pre-scientific zoology
Humans have been fascinated by the other members of the animal
kingdom throughout history.
In early Europe, they gathered up and treasured stories of strange
animals from distant lands or deep seas, such as are recorded in the
Physiologus, in the works of Albertus Magnus (On Animals), and
others.
These accounts were often apocryphal and creatures were often
described as "legendary."
This period was succeeded by the age of collectors and travellers,
when many of the stories were actually demonstrated as true when
the living or preserved specimens were brought to Europe.
78. 16th century developments
Scientific zoology really started in the 16th
century with the awakening of the new
spirit of observation and exploration
but for a long time ran a separate course
uninfluenced by the progress of the
medical studies of anatomy and physiology
79. 17th century developments
In the 17th century, the lovers of the new
philosophy, the investigators of nature by means
of observation and experiment, banded
themselves into academies or societies for mutual
support and intercourse.
The first founded of surviving European
academies, the Academia Naturae Curiosorum
(1651) especially confined itself to the
description and illustration of the structure of
plants and animals;
80. `17th century
A little later the Academy of Sciences of
Paris was established by Louis XIV
The influence of these great academies of
the 17th century on the progress of zoology
was precisely to effect that bringing
together of the museum-men and the
physicians or anatomists which was needed
for further development.
81. 19th century developments
Development of the microscope
- It was not until the 19th century that the
microscope, was applied to the study of animal
structure, and accomplished for zoology its final
and most important service.
The perfecting of the microscope led to a full
comprehension of the great doctrine of cell
structure and the establishment of the facts
Developments in other sciences impacting
zoology
82. Zoology Since 1859: Darwin and Theory of
Evolution
in 1859, Charles Darwin placed the whole theory
of organic evolution on a new footing, by his
discovery of a process by which organic
evolution can occur, and provided observational
evidence that it had done so.
This changed the attitudes of most exponents of
the scientific method. Darwin's discoveries
revolutionized the zoological and botanical
sciences, by introducing the theory of evolution
by natural selection as an explanation for the
diversity of all animal and plant life.
