mechanisms, development and evolution.
Astronomy is the scientific study of celestial objects (such as stars, planets, comets, and
galaxies) and phenomena that originate outside the Earth's atmosphere (such as the
cosmic background radiation).
Geology (from the Ancient Greek γῆ, gē ("earth") and -λoγία, -logia, ("study of",
"discourse")) is an earth science concerned with the solid Earth, the rocks of which it is
composed, and the processes by which they change over time.
Chemistry is the branch of science concerned with the substances of which matter is composed,
the investigation of their properties and reactions, and the use of such reactions to form new
substances.
Physics is the branch of science concerned with the nature and properties of matter and energy.
The subject matter of physics includes mechanics, heat, light and other radiation, sound,
electricity, magnetism, and the structure of atoms.
2 what do scientists do
There are many different kinds of scientists, and they all do different things. Some like to learn about
living organisms. They are called biologists. Others like to study rocks. We call them geologists.
People who study animals are sometimes called zoologists - this is easy to remember because
sometimes animals live in zoos.

what is validity Validity? In its purest sense, this refers to how well a scientific test or
piece of research actually measures what it sets out to, or how well it reflects the reality
it claims to represent.

what is reliability The key aspects concerning the quality of scientific measures are
reliability and validity. Reliability is a measure of the internal consistency and stability
of a measuring device. ... Internal consistency is the degree in which the items or
questions on the measure consistently assess the same construct.
