1. which branch of science deals with the study of things beyond the earths atmosphere?

a. metereology

Explanation:

1. Biology is the study of life, also known as life - science. Earth science studies the Earth, physical science deals with non - living matter and energy, and pure science is a general term for basic scientific research.
2. Geology focuses on the Earth's history and structure. Astronomy studies celestial objects, ecology is about the relationships between organisms and their environment, and taxonomy is about classification.
3. Genetics is the study of how traits are passed from parents to offspring. Ecology is not related to inheritance, and "parentology" is not a recognized science term, while genes are the units of heredity, not the field of study.
4. Applied science aims to find practical uses of scientific knowledge and laws. Pure science is for the pursuit of knowledge without immediate practical goals, technology is the application of scientific knowledge for practical purposes but is more about tools and methods, and Earth science is about the Earth.
5. Evolution studies the changes in organisms over time. Genetics focuses on heredity, and ecology focuses on organism - environment relationships.
6. Pure science involves gathering information through experimentation for the sake of knowledge. Technology is about practical applications, applied science is for practical uses based on scientific knowledge, and social science is a different category that studies human society.

Answer:

1. c. Life Science
2. a. Geology
3. c. Genetics
4. c. Applied Science
5. c. Evolution
6. a. Pure Science
