What is pure science and applied science?

Answer 1

Pure Biology is simply the facts about the living world. In research terms, it is basic research, describing migrations of birds, or studying molecules for their function. Applied biology includes fields such as agriculture and conservation. It is taking the pure biology and applying to a problem or field. For example, in pure biology we may find that multiple chromosomes increases the health of a certain species of wheat. Applied biology could use that information to improve the crops that we eat.

Answer 2

Pure science is research performed to gain an understanding of how the world works.

Applied science uses the information gained through pure science for human purposes (e.g. healthcare, engineering, farming, etc.)

Answer 3

Pure science is science done in a laboratory. It is also called natural science. Applied science is also called technology or engineering. It is done outside. In pure science, a biologist might discover a drug that kills a bacteria. In applied science, a physician might find out if that drug cures a patient. In pure science a physicist might discover a new way to make a diode. In applied science an engineer will see if it works in a television set.
