What kind of mathematical tools do biologists and geologists usually use? a.Accounting c.Calculus b.Statistics d.Algebra

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think it is B

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Why you think its B?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

idk that just sounds most right

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I have never been asked this or even learned about this?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

They use Statistics.

OpenStudy (zale101):

I've heard that geology and biology majors are required to select extra math course in statistics.

OpenStudy (zale101):

Ryaan, we think the same thing !

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Hehe :3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol ok thanks guys for the help :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Zale ma'am has helped you :)

thomaster (thomaster):

Hm I'm a biologist and I use way more algebra than statistics :P But could be because I'm in medical biology.

OpenStudy (zale101):

biomed thomaster?

OpenStudy (zale101):

i think that's why..

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Cool :3

thomaster (thomaster):

yea medical bio laboratory

OpenStudy (zale101):

i think u need some calculus in that

OpenStudy (anonymous):

......... ?

thomaster (thomaster):

No idea what calculus is :P We just call it math here. But we're going offtopic sorry @msumner

OpenStudy (anonymous):

@msumner don't get confuse! They have started convo :P

OpenStudy (zale101):

haha, wow

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol i wasnt confused and i know what calculus is i just want to make sure we all have the same answer?

OpenStudy (zale101):

maybe u finished calculus and u don't know yet lol

OpenStudy (zale101):

we got off topic :P

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol

thomaster (thomaster):

for regular biologist, of course statistics is correct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you guys can talk all you want have fun ! lol

OpenStudy (zale101):

because scientist often need data

thomaster (thomaster):

And yea I probably finished calculus. But everything is combined here in just 1 subject: math. Same thing in highschool here.

thomaster (thomaster):

exept statistics, that's a different course but only in college

OpenStudy (zale101):

back in my senior years they offered statistics, but i didn't enroll in that class :P

OpenStudy (zale101):

because scientist often need data

OpenStudy (alienium):

statistics...

OpenStudy (zale101):

pretty much
