Mathematics is essential to science. Science uses measurement and experiments to make observations and form theories, but mathematics provides the framework for quantification, manipulation of data, and modeling phenomena with equations. Without mathematics, science could not progress beyond concepts to make predictions or discover new insights. All fields of science, including physics, chemistry, biology, ecology, and computer science rely heavily on mathematical concepts and tools to formulate and analyze theories.

Science: The observation, identification, description, experimental
investigation, and theoretical explanation of phenomena.
Mathematics: The study of the measurement, properties, and
relationships of quantities and sets, using numbers and symbols. Mathematics is the queen of science. The concepts of science alone can't help us proceed further to get to know new things. The laws of science, when molded into mathematical formulae, help us to predict new things. Without mathematics, science is just a fairy tale. Nothing can be predicted on the basis of concepts only. It's mathematics that gives the proof and explanation to these concepts. Thus, its mathematics due to which this electronic age has become possible. Science and technology very much depends on mathematics . There would not be subject like physics, chemistry, ecology and so on if it weren’t for mathematics. To know how much force you need to apply on an object you need to do it by using mathematic formulae and even to know the law of physics mathematics is needed . Even to balance and create a mixture we do it mathematically. Mathematics is the language of science as science is quantitative. Science interprets everything by measurement, sampling and experimentation to derive a generalized set of conclusion. Measurement needs numbers and mathematics set the rules in manipulation of numbers. Simple example if a pen weighs 5 grams so two pens will weigh 10 grams (addition). For example for a chemist to make mixture they need to calculate how much each of the compound should be mixed. If they don’t calculate in an appropriate amount needed then it might be dangerous ,like an explosion may occur or may while inventing something an engineer will measure everything and then try to fix them in an order like if inventing a robot the technicians measure everything , how much height should be taken for the robot and then according to it they calculate everything and come to a conclusion of making the parts like and hand and other part. Whatever knowledge we gather by observation or experimentation the aim is ultimately is to produce a theory of some phenomena. Most of the theories in science especially in physical sciences are to be put in a model.A mathematical model helps us to summarize the whole theory into a formula or set of equations.One can now play with these equations to answer many questions about the phenomena and also it helps in predicting the new results and if they are verified by experiment then the theory becomes established.For example the newtons theory of gravitation helped to understand the kepler's laws of planetary motion.It also helped in discovering the new planets and of course in space programs the trajectory of space crafts etc. In each and every aspect of science , mathematics is a must …. In Physics All theories are proven through mathematical equations. Whenever you want to calculate the magnitude or direction of a vector or a magnitude of a scalar you need to use math's. In Chemistry Chemistry is an exact science since it relies on quantitative models that can be described and applied by using the mathematical language. For instance, the theory of chemical bonding and molecular structure, rates and equilibria of chemical reactions, molecular thermodynamics, relationships involving energy, structure and reactivity, modeling of solvation, are swarming with problems whose solutions require sophisticated mathematical techniques. Mathematics also plays a central role in many areas of "applied" chemistry and chemical engineering. Important examples include atmospheric chemistry, biochemistry, and the broad field of computer simulations. The development of faster and more accurate spectroscopic techniques, the design of molecular devices, biomolecular computers, and of new empirical methods to predict reliable chemical data, and the conception of more efficient chemical reactors are just a few of a vast number of other topics that have strong links to applied mathematics In Biology We use maths mostly in genetics, where you calculate the probability of of transferring a certain characteristic- phenotype,a probability of transferring a disease . Mathematics can probably continue to help Biology ( by focusing, above all, on modelling, computing power and statistical validation. In thisway, outstanding scientific results can be obtained, that would eventually contribute to biological achievements.This is what happened with what is usually considered as the most significant biological achievement of the Century, identifying the structure of DNA. This work was essentially done by Physicists, Chemists and Crystallographers, using the techniques with which they were familiar. In Computer Science The computer itself does math's all the time as it can understand nothing but 0's and 1's.We compute those machine language and build a logic how to on process it step by step like solving a math's problem. Math's is also important in programming. As u can see programmers use codes in java, visual basic, visual C++.Webmasters use HTML and CSS codes while building web pages where math is also included. For example. Dimension for a picture is fixed by using width=60pixels x height=60 pixels. In Ecology To calculate birth rate, death rate ,vital indexes,census,etc From above points , we can conclude that knowledge of science is incomplete without mathematical knowledge . If we lack mathematical knowledge we can never understand the concepts of science properly. So, we all should realize its importance . Thanks for your attention. I would like to thank our GP teacher for giving me this opportunity which helped me to know more about the topic. I would also like to thank my family who supported me .
