What is the procedure of scientism?

rockiedink:
Oya...my own question:

How can we explain the structure and layout of "The Hanging Gardens of Babylon" considering the technology available at the time?

We're the plants actually 'hanging'? How did they irrigate the whole complex? Was it actual shrubs or lesser plants (like algae and spirogyra )

Ministerial nomination for the best answer!!!

uhm . . . a few minutes ago?

Samguine:

In my opinion, Mathematics is the purest form of science. All other branches of science would be meaningless without Mathematics.

Teempakguy:

Hi there!
Teempakguy here.

So, I have been observing the science/technology section a lot recently . . . and I have to say, it focuses more on technology than science. I have also noticed that threads opened waste away, with about an average of two posts per thread. I think the problem here is a real life application the chicken egg problem. So, to solve it, the obvious solution, is to form a congregation of people interested in science in one place. Hence the creation of this thread.

So, here is how things go, we are going to be talking on topics based on the natural sciences. Physics, chemistry, mathematics, biology, and of course, their basic applications. So, if you have a problem on any of those, try and post it here. In the mean time, if you stumble upon this thread and you don't have anything to add or subtract, please make sure you book space.
I'm serious. Book space and tell us your area of specialization so that other people can mention you in their posts. Because, honestly, in this section, nobody knows anybody else.

Meanwhile, I have some suggestions. If you want to give a complex mathematical expression, do not type it. Instead, write it on a paper or board and upload a photo of it. Same goes if you want to solve it. Or you could use mathlab android app. this is to make the whole process more interesting and easy to follow.

Any level is allowed. Whether it be primary school arithmetic or PhD string theory . . . you will eventually find someone to express interest in it.

You can just come by and drop interesting or random facts . . . like for instance, The Pythagoras' theorem is older than Pythagoras

Or you can just tell us something yoiu observed in your daily life . . . for instance, why does a bar of soap form an hourglass figure after regular usage?

You can also challenge popular views. For instance, since toilet floors are the most frequently cleaned in most houses, isn't it safer to eat food from a toilet floor than a dining room floor. Which gathers more bacteria than that of the toilet?

There. I am finished. Oyah, come and occupy, the floor. Remember, small minds discuss people, average minds discuss events. And great minds discuss ideas. Which one are you?

Well, That's Why it's called one of the "WONDERS" of the world. IT'S like asking for a scientific explanation of the Alexandria light house. It's a cosmic pre ordination that precedes any intelligence and it can never be deduced logically.

Space booked

I Use Gregor mendel head take beg everybody

Pleeeeaaasssseeeee don't quote long Posts! Pleeeaaaasseeee!

Teempakguy:
observation-->hypothesis-->experiment-->formulation of theory-->further experiment-->conversion of theory into law.
I am right, am I not?

Teempakguy:


It made front page . . .
This proves that the mods are not so wealth hungry as we previously thought.

Intergral . . . I sight you oh!

Menesheh . . . let me finish!

Now, when DNA acquires a mistake in its gene programming, it has to be repaired immediately . . .usually, it gets repaired. But sometimes, it doesn't. Then the mutation becomes permanently engraved in and EVERY cell that comes from that cell will be similarly mutated. Even spermatozoa or the egg! And when this happens, during fertilization, this mutation is passed on to the offspring.

This is usually the kind of mutation that affects natural selection. There are various other types . . . but these only affect a few cells and are not passed on to offsprings. These are caused by radicals, radiation, and viruses.

I hope this answers your question.

BigBen10:


what is a brand or brane? Never heard of that before. I thought we just have one universe.

laykorn:


Gregor Mendel? Wasn't that the Austrian or Australian monk that carried out experiments on pea plants to study genes?

ELYMAXiimus:

i'm sure there are people who are crazy about science here on NL.
But they are outnumbered by uninterested persons!
Plus they are not always online. (scientist don't have much time for social media). They can only come around once in a while.
Nd when they do, only one or two topics might interest them.

But i'm sure if this thread gets recognision, we would havee more of them coming online frequently to discuss ideas nd so on...

Perhaps if the thread could get on the FP. @ op

Teempakguy:
I will explain it.

Freemanan:
Correct... Too bad his glory Came posthumous

laykorn:


Oh! That's pretty bad.


Was he Austrian or Australian?

Freemanan:

You are right but it's incomplete.... One thing that is constant in science is evolution of knowledge. Like the evolution of the astrological facts by Nicholas Copernicus.... The Catholics hold the earth to be flat but he debunked that with a superior fact. Now mathematics is not like that. Is it?

laykorn:

Oh! That's pretty bad.

Was he Austrian or Australian?

Teempakguy:
exactly. . . that is what I was telling freemanan.

intergral:
Cap on ma chest head facing ma toes... Ah hail!

Freemanan:

Austrian.... That Country is known for great scientists.... Marie Curie and all..

Freemanan:


Lol.... Have you Heard of Logic?

Teempakguy:

The largest thing we know in science is a Brane.
Brands contain universes.
Universes contain clusters. But,
Clusters are made of galaxies.
Galaxies are made of stars . . . well, mostly stars.
Stars have systems.
Each star system has planets.
Planets have . . . "spheres" our planet, Earth, has a biosphere
This biosphere is made of living organisms. Like you and I . . . and goats.
These organisms are made of organic systems.
These systems are made up of organs. like that tongue.
Organs are made of tissue.
Tissue, is made of cells
Cells are made up of organelles.
Organelles . . . are made up of GIANT molecules!
Molecules are made up of atoms . . .
Now, atoms are made of subatomic particles . . . the electron, the protons, neutrons.
Wait . . . even the neutron is made up of the electron and the proton.
The proton is made of quarks!
And quarks are made up of little, cute, superstrings.

Gluons keep the atom core together and photons are the senior messengers that carry energy. little neutrinos are the junior messengers. they can go anywhere.
We must not forget the higgs boson. This bulky guy gives all the other particles mass!!
The electron is the negative guy that actually allows matter to occupy space!! Without that dude, matter would smash into each other and form huge black holes
But nothing would be complete without the graviton. A really, really small particle which is really good at hiding.
It allows you to play football, play "no bouncing" jump, play basketball, even swim

The universe is fascinating!! Each level of arrangements have a whole lot of juicy facts and patterns that can make your head swirl with excitement!!
Which is why we study it with mathematics, physics, chemistry, and biology! And in science, our ultimate goal is to be able to explain every thing. To understand your universe. From the smallest string, to the largest Brane. In fact, EVERYTHING



Cheers!
