Sociologists  investigate  the  structure  of  groups,

            organizations  and  how  people  interact  within  these
                      3
            contexts.   The  resulting  body  of  knowledge,  while
            informative and important has, for the most part, little

            practical application.



            Biology

            Biology  is  a  pure  and  applied  science.  Like  other
            disciplines  in  this  category  (examples,  physics,

            chemistry, mathematics), it is sometimes referred to as a
            “hard” science. It is the study of living organisms, their

            functions,  how  species  come  into  existence,  their
            interactions  with  each  other  and  with  the  natural

            environment.    Four  unifying  principles  form  the
            foundation  of  modern  biology:  cell  theory,  evolution
            (antithetical    to    BIBLICAL     truth),    genetics     and

            homeostasis  (the  state  of  equilibrium  or  balance
            between  interdependent  elements).         4   Like  sociology,

            the  resulting  body  of  knowledge  is  informative  and
            important.  Unlike  sociology,  it  has  a  long  history  of

            practical applications. For example, the field of medicine
            is greatly underpinned by the applications of biological

            principles.
