    With the sciences, there are many 'technical terms.' These are written for all to understand the aspects of the science or field, so everyone knows what each other means. There is no room for this in practical application or actually doing the task though, as this is down to understanding it yourself. That said, you cannot do anything in terms of a degree study if you do not understand the equations or terms in your own language, which means, of course, there should be room to do these things in examinations with your own justified terms. If everyone used their own terms though, there would be chaos, so, we need to find similar terms, easily understood due to context.

    Take one of my favourite science terms - density. This is wit science, where we observe the density of the materials or gases, where they would have a lot of density making them a different material, the same way colours are different due to their own 'density.' This is because when we see colours, we are seeing carbon density 'excited' by the photons, that carry the electron to the material and then electrify it, making it unstable and adding energy, which it gives back to the world in a glow, yes?

    The there is native and foreign. These are my health care terms, where the native cells are usually the good ones, that lead to natural processes or functions and workings of the body where the body is kept alive and healthy because there is balance, or imbalance. Sugar and oxygen, for example, are poisons, but, they are kept in check by the rest of the body. These 'poisons' will add energy to the body because the acidity of them is so high they stimulate activities and therefore reactions in the body.

    Then there is money. With the plethora of economics terms out there, surely the actual answer of the question would suffice in real world terms where it is 'explained?' Layman's curves and so forth are silly and confuse people with their names, and, will stump and give stress to many students. The way money used to work is that it was physical or imaginary, today it can grow and shrink in a moment, and, is represented ot by gold and ivory, but rather by digits on a screen, where there is sometimes not even a bank account for the repayment of loans - look, if there is a account for the loaner and none for the bank's personal account, the money annihilates - it will go from the account holder to be wiped out by the bank, instead of being transferred to the bank's own account. This is why there is such slow growth sometimes, such stupidity. Physics works better.
