The branches of science

Today, there are so many of the most interesting problems in science, I think It’s interesting to learn about science deeper, because today, knowledge and understanding of the world is more sophisticated and complicated that no one could possibly be at the border in such a wide variety of fields. So scientists work at many different tasks.

We’ve known the meaning of science. So, we’ve gotta know that science divided into several branches which are distinguished by the view and content of the questions. Several branches of science are Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Geology, and Astronomy. All of sciences are interconnected in a natural world.

The first is physics, which describes the most basic of nature, such as light, energy, forces, heat and other phenomena. Physic is the beginning detail for almost any study of how nature works.
The second is chemistry, the study about mixture of atoms. You know that chemicals form every material object in the world, chemical reaction initiative vital changes in our environment and our body.
Biology is the study of living systems. Geology is to learn about the origin, evolution, and present of our home, planet earth. The study of other planets is a way to understand the unique character of our world. And Astronomy is to learn about stars, planets, and other objects in space.
