| Science is significant for all. It’s responsible for 
		almost everything that we know about our world on a physical level. It 
		is important to understand, however, that science is not a book full of 
		facts. It is a process by which we figure things out about the world. 
		Science is concerned with things that we can test and observe. Some of 
		the essential stuff one should be aware of about science is mentioned in 
		this article:

		Science Changes
 Not everything you grew up thinking as “true” will be true when you die. 
		This is a good thing. It means that we are discovering more about the 
		universe (and about everything else for that matter).

		Natural does not equal healthy
 
 Potassium cyanide is natural, but it is definitely not healthy.

		Bacteria are everywhere
 In fact, if every cell in your body could vote, bacteria would have a 
		90% majority. By cell count, there are more bacteria cells inside of you 
		than human cells.

		You use 100 percent of your brain
 You just don’t use all of it at the same time.

		| Your Mobile phone won't kill you
 
 Yes, it does emit radiation, but so do you. In fact, you emit more 
		radiation than your cell phone.

		| Science is a process
 
 It is not a collection of facts. This goes along with the idea that 
		scientific knowledge changes over time.

		| DNA
 
 All life on Earth encodes the main information about itself and passes 
		that information down through DNA.

		Memory
 
 Our memories are hopelessly inaccurate. In fact, in light of recent 
		findings, there are movements aimed at reducing the court system’s 
		reliance on eyewitness testimony. The fact is, you are not really 
		remembering the event at all…you’re only remembering the last time you 
		remembered it. And every time your brain imagines something, it either 
		adds to it, or takes away.

		| GMOs
 
 Almost all the food you eat (if not all of it) has been genetically 
		modified in some way. In fact, millions of people would have died in the 
		last several decades were it not for GMOs.
