Science is one of those school subjects you either love or hate. Some people are drawn to the practicality of science, understanding the physical and natural world in a straightforward, structured way. Others like living in this physical world, and enjoy nature, but don't really have that much interest in systematically studying it all. Hypothesis Shmypothesis...I'll believe it when I can see it! But thanks to the folks who do care enough to observe and experiment, we know a lot of answers!
Encompassing biology, physics, chemistry, geology, and more, this multiple choice quiz will ask you to choose from four possible answers. If you're truly a science buff you're likely to chafe at the multiple options available. After all, you likely don't have the time to pen an experiment, plan your methods, examine limitations, and run tests to determine the right answer. Still, we hope you can relax your science nerd mind enough to have fun with this.

Science of the word Science
Over the centuries, the core interpretation of the word 'Science' has remained constant. Originally from the Latin word scientia (for knowledge, knowing, experience or expertness), the word came to English via the Old French. Since the late 14th century, it's been associated with knowledge, learning, application, and a collective knowledge. Particularly, the word has long been strongly associated with the idea of people seeking and sharing knowledge in a systemic fashion. Some look to those engaged in science as being optimistic and forward-looking, willing to explore ideas and experiment in the physical worlds. However, throughout the centuries (often in religious circles), others have frowned upon this questing need to know. Nonetheless, even if it's said with a sneer, the word's etymology remains the same.
