To determine which of the following options would be considered a career in science, you can analyze each option and consider the nature of the work involved.
1. Architect: While architecture involves elements of math and design, it is primarily a field that focuses on creating buildings and structures. While architects may need to possess a basic understanding of scientific principles, the field is not traditionally considered a career in science.
2. Drafter: Similarly to architecture, drafting involves creating technical drawings and plans for buildings, products, or machinery. Although drafters often work closely with architects and engineers, drafting itself is not typically considered a science-based career.
3. Geneticist: Genetics is a branch of science that specifically studies genes, heredity, and variation in living organisms. Geneticists analyze DNA and conduct research to better understand how genes influence traits and diseases. Thus, geneticist is a clear example of a career in science.
4. Statistician: While statistics involve the analysis and interpretation of data, it is primarily considered a mathematical discipline rather than a pure science field. Statisticians apply statistical principles and methods to draw conclusions and make predictions, but they do not conduct scientific experiments or study natural phenomena directly.
Therefore, the option that would be considered a career in science is "geneticist."
