Modern natural science is characterized by non-mechanistic and non-metaphysical approaches compared to classical science. Key aspects include ideas about the development of nature, different forms of matter motion, various structural levels of natural organization, and expanding views of causal relationships. Modern natural science also takes a systems approach to understanding nature as a whole, sees the world as hierarchical systems rather than studying objects in isolation, and recognizes that absolute truth is unattainable. It incorporates new theories from areas like relativity, quantum mechanics, and evolution that have emerged across natural science disciplines.
