Science
and fields of science

Science
(Latin
scientia,
from scire,
“to know”), is the term which is used, in its broadest meaning to
denote systematized knowledge in any field, but applied usually to
the organization of objectively verifiable sense experience. The
pursuit of knowledge in this context is known as pure science, to
distinguish it from applied science, which is the search for
practical uses of scientific knowledge, and from technology, through
which applications are realized.

Knowledge
of nature originally was largely an undifferentiated observation and
interrelation of experiences. The Pythagorean scholars distinguished
only four sciences: arithmetic, geometry, music, and astronomy. By
the time of Aristotle, however, other fields could also be
recognized: mechanics, optics, physics, meteorology, zoology, and
botany. Chemistry remained outside the mainstream of science until
the time of Robert Boyle in the 17th century, and geology achieved
the status of a science only in the 18th century. By that time the
study of heat, magnetism, and electricity had become part of physics.
During the 19^th
century scientists finally recognized that pure mathematics differs
from the other sciences in that it is a logic of relations and does
not depend for its structure on the laws of nature. Its applicability
in the elaboration of scientific theories, however, has resulted in
its continued classification among the sciences.

The
pure natural sciences are generally divided into two classes: the
physical sciences and the biological, or life, sciences. The
principal branches among the former are physics, astronomy,
chemistry, and geology; the chief biological sciences are botany and
zoology. The physical sciences can be subdivided to identify such
fields as mechanics, cosmology, physical chemistry, and meteorology;
physiology, embryology, anatomy, genetics, and ecology are
subdivisions of the biological sciences.

The
applied sciences include such fields as aeronautics, electronics,
engineering, and metallurgy, which are applied physical sciences, and
agronomy and medicine, which are applied biological sciences. In this
case also, overlapping branches must be recognized. The cooperation,
for example, between medical physics (a branch of medical research
based on principles of physics) and bioengineering resulted in the
development of the heart-lung machine used in open-heart surgery and
in the design of artificial organs such as heart chambers and valves,
kidneys, blood vessels, and inner-ear bones. Advances such as these
are generally the result of research by teams of specialists
representing different sciences, both pure and applied. This
interrelationship between theory and practice is as important to the
growth of science today as it was at the time of Galileo.

Review
of relative clauses

A)
A
relative clause is also known as an adjective clause. It is a
subordinate clause with the function of modifying a noun/ noun phrase
or a pronoun.

Example:

1.
Science (pure science) is a term which is used to denote systemized
knowledge in

any
field.

2.
Applied science is the term that is used to refer to the search for
practical uses of scientific knowledge.

3.
Neil Armstrong was the first person who walked on the Moon.

4.
Here, we should distinguish pure science from technology through
which

applications
are realized.

5.
Newton whom many of us, scientists have respected used not to be a
good student at all.

6.
Newton, whose discovery of the theory of gravity was very strange,
has been the

pioneer
in Mechanics Physics.

7.
The book of which the cover has been torn is a very famous one
written by David

Halliday.

From
the above examples, we can see that the noun phrases a
term, the term, the first person; technology and
Newton
are
respectively modified by relative clauses

1.
which
is
used to denote systemized knowledge in any field.

2.
that
is
used to refer to the search for practical uses of scientific
knowledge.

3.
who
walked
on the Moon.

4.
through which
applications
are realized.

5.
whom
many
of us, scientists have respected.

6.
whose
discovery
of the theory of gravity was very strange.

7.
of
which the
cover has been torn.

B)
You
can easily realize that these clauses begin with which/
that/ which/ who/ whom/

whose.
These
are called relative
pronouns. They
function as pronouns, and at the same time, show the relationship
between the modified noun/pronoun and other elements in the sentence.

For
example the first relative clause, listed above, shows the
relationship between the subject and its complement (science
and
term).

By
the functions and implications of these pronouns in each the above
sentences, we can classify them into groups as in the following
table.

Types

Functions

Subject:
Who That Which

Object:
Whom/Who That/Which

Possessives:
Whose/of Which

C)
Having
a look at the example one, the relative clause is very necessary for
the

meaningful
existence of the sentence because if we read the sentence — Science
is a term,
it would be very difficult for us to understand what it means
exactly: We know the word science
and we know the word term
but
what is more about this term in relation with science is actually
what we need to know. That’s why a relative clause in this case
works best. Such a relative clause is called a restrictive
relative clause. This
type of relative clause is sometimes known as defining
relative clause.

Quite
differently, from the fifth relative clause from the list we can see
that the relative clause does not affect much to the meaning of the
whole sentence, with or without this clause, the sentence still makes
sense to us. In this case, the presence of a relative clause is only
to give some extra information about Newton; such a relative clause
is called a non-restrictive
clause
or
sometimes non-defining
relative clause.

Other
differences between these two types of relative clauses are as
follow:

• Non-defining
clause is more common in written style

• Non-defining
relative clause must be put between two commas, except when it is at

the
end of the sentence (the full stop replaces the second comma).

• Pronoun
that
can
not be used in a non-defining relative clause

D)
In
example four, you can easily realize the preposition through
should
be
put in front of the pronoun which.

• Here,
we should distinguish pure science from technology through which
applications are realized.

It
is easy to see that the sentence can be understood in a simpler way
by splitting it into two simple sentences – Here, we should
distinguish pure science from technology.

Applications
can be realized through technology. Now, it is obvious that the
preposition through
does
not at all accompany the pronoun which
randomly,
actually, it accompanies the noun technology
that
the relative pronoun which
replaces.
Here, there is no change in position between the noun (now its
replacing
item)
and its accompanying preposition.

In
another case – Newton from whom we have been learning used not to
be a good

student
anyway – the preposition from
is
once more considered to be accompanying the noun Newton
and
it is also put before the pronoun whom
(replacing
Newton).

From
both cases, it is deduced that, we can put a preposition in front of
objective

pronouns,
and this makes the sentence more formal. However, it is noted that,

• If
a preposition is put in front of a pronoun, the pronoun can not be
omitted.

• Prepositions
can not be put in front of pronouns that
and
who.

• If
the preposition is a part of a phrasal verb, it can not separate from
its main verb. E.g.

The
progress of science is the topic which/that/ we are looking into.

• Such
words as some,
many,
and most
can
go before of
whom and
of
which in
a nondefining relative clause. E.g. The
success of this theory is attributed to American
scientists,
many of whom did lose their lives for it.
