Biology is the study of living things and living organisms through scientifically-documented and peer-reviewed, rigorous scientific research techniques. Modern biology is a relatively new field of study because it was not studied in ancient cultures, but instead, was studied almost exclusively by experts from other disciplines. Ever since the beginning of modern technology, science has …
Mathematicians are people who do research on all kinds of mathematics. They use math to solve practical problems and create products that people can use in everyday life.

Quantum mechanics describes the world in super tiny packets of data known as quanta, which each of which is from the same vibration of an extremely small part of an overall bigger whole. Quantum mechanics describes the strange behaviors of tiny sub atomic particles called qubits that are units of very precise computer hardware. They …
If the theory of evolution is true, then by definition, the entire world is simulation. Indeed, that’s what scientists like Oxford University’s Robin Spears and Max Tegmark are saying. Simulation means the careful, painstaking recreation of the world, including all its aspects, in the computer code of a computer. When you look at it this …

The problem is not unique to drought conditions, or even just the West, as the Asian countries that have been hit hard by floods and other water-related disasters show us the perils of using too much. It seems that every time there is a drought, …
Global climate change has had visible impacts on the planet’s ecosystem. Glacier retreats, shrinking glaciers, shrinking plant and animal populations have all changed, and species are shifting and flowering earlier. Predicted effects in the past would have resulted in global warming: rapid melting of land ice, increased water pollution and rising sea levels. These changes …
Deforestation, in short, refers to the reduction or completely erasing of tree plantations or vegetated cover to allow industrial, agricultural or residential usage. It implies the complete loss of forestry cover to create that vacant land available for commercial, agricultural or residential purposes. This is a problem that has been present for years and many …
