Unit -02 Solving a Biological problems
Q 1: What do you mean by scientific method?
Ans: The scientific method, in which biological problems are solved, is termed as
biological method. It comprises the steps a biologist adopts in order to solve a biological
problem.
Q 2: Define observation and describe its types?
Ans: To solve a biological problem the biologist recalls the previous observations or
makes new ones. Observations are made with five senses of vision, hearing, taste,
touch and smell. There are two types of observations
1: Quantitative Observations: These are considered more accurate these are
invariable and measurable and can be recorded in terms of numbers.
For example the freezing point of water is 0oC and the boiling point is 100o C.
2: Qualitative Observations: These are lesser accurate because these observations
are variable and are not measurable. These observations are recorded in terms of
conditions.For example the freezing point of water is cooler than boiling point.
Q 3: Describe hypothesis formulation?
Ans: Observations do not become scientific observations until they are Organized and
related to a question. Biologist organizes observations into data from and constructs a
statement that may prove to be the answer of the biological problems under study. This
Tentative explanation of the observation is called hypothesis. It may be defined as a
proposition that might be true.
Characteristics of good hypothesis
A good hypothesis should have the following Characteristics
a. It should be general statements.
b. It should be a tentative idea.
c. It should agree with available observations.
d. It should be kept as simple as possible.
e. It should be testable and potentially falsifiable. In other words there should be a
way to show the hypothesis is false a way to dis prove the hypothesis.
Biologists used reasoning to formulate a hypothesis.
Q 4: Differentiate between hypothesis and Law?
Ans: Hypothesis: The tentative explanation of observations is called Hypothesis. It can
be defined as proposition that might be true.
Law: A Scientific law is a uniform or constant fact of nature. It is an irrefutable theory.

Q 5: Define Theory?
Ans: The Hypothesis that stands the test of time are called Theories. Theory is often
tested and never rejected.
Q 6: Differentiate between Theory and Law?
Ans: Theory: The Hypothesis that stands the test of time are called Theories. Theory is
often tested and never rejected.
Law: Law is a rule which predict the same result when similar conditions are always
satisfied.
Q 7: What is meant by the word “Malaria”?
Ans: The word Malaria is derived from two Greek Words Mala means Bad and Aria
Means Air i.e. diseases of Bad Air.
Q 8: Define the term Data?
Ans: Data can be defined as a single piece of Information such as names, dates or
values made from Observations and Experimentation.
Q 9: What are Variables?
Ans: Variables are those Factors being tested in Experiment and are usually compared
to a control.
Q 10: Define the term Ratio?
Ans: When a relation between two numbers e.g. ‘a’ and ‘b’ is expressed in term of
quotient (a/b), such relation is the ratio of one number to the other. A ratio may be
expressed by putting a (÷) or colon (:) mark between the two numbers.
Q 11: What do you mean by Proportion?
Ans: Proportion means to join the equal ratios by sign of equality (=),
For example a: b = c: d is a proportion between two Ratios.
