common sense is the means which it uses science to solve their problems, as by common sense man faces his first concern, it takes you to the adaptation of the environment which one lives, to know and transform as mentioned earlier. The science part is not doing its job of systematizing concepts and development of premises as a first attitude to everyday problems, this is where common sense, which is permissible in the pursuit of knowledge. For devoted to daily, it has an immediate effect by the fact that devoted to the responses of the most pressing problems, common sense is the one responsible for ordering the knowledge we have of sensible objects eg
"The vision is responsible for color , hearing, gustation of sound and sense of taste ... every discerning about this kind of sensitive and suffers no error in the case of a color or sound, but may be mistaken about what is or where the object is colored , what or where is the sound object. Such qualities, both are said to be peculiar to each sense " [1]
And these are the primary issues, which we have the external senses, and those are the ones that require speed in treatment, with a view to a target immediately, we can call this way of looking at the fact everyday thinking:
"For everyday thinking involves, first, all that intellectual activity that occurs in most people, so normal, every day, and is not intended to reach deep explanations ... know some authors call vulgar, common sense, ordinary thinking, unscientific thinking, ordinary knowledge. " [2]
showing and differentiating features on science and common sense, and compares it with the above we could say that science would be purely quantitative characteristics, while the characteristics of common sense would qualitative [3] , well differentiated, because science measures what it knows, while common sense only dedicated to the lightest known fact: their qualities. When we mentioned these features separate science and common sense, because their tools when managing knowledge are different, however there is no denying that a number of specialized sciences have emerged from the daily concerns of man, of course not all sciences have their origin as well, but if possible make an honorable mention in the common sense found its root, eg " biology began to be consolidated from the health and reproduction of men" [4] . For the above premises "to ome scholars, impressed by the continuity between common knowledge and scientific findings, even said that science is nothing more than organized common sense" [5] . To which I get to say this, is that common sense is the starting point of science, since before any scientific research that we perceive through the senses has in particular the status that gives common sense, and of course the first apprehension of things is not one hundred percent verifiable, because it lacks many assumptions needed to be, maybe you an immediate trial of the object in question, but after reviewing affirm or deny what was understood.
When common sense offers explanations, demonstrations makes no criticism of the experience being the only tool for demonstration and such explanations, therefore, can not stress the importance of the fact that you want to explain . When you want to explain the above and are used to explain methods and controls it with the fact factual question is when we say that science is generated.
"The organization and classification of events based on explanatory principles, structures increasingly defined and comprising an increasing number of phenomena is what is the purpose of science. Critically examining common sense, modeling, we reach the so-called scientific knowledge " [6] .
worth mentioning something about it, " Science is not merely an extension of everyday thinking ... these kinds of thoughts come to be overlapping, but they soon separated and highlight their differences " [7] , and that is the time when the science part alone.
" Science, in short, grows from common knowledge and beyond with its growth, in fact, scientific research begins in the very place where experience and knowledge are no longer ordinary solve problems or to raise them " [8] .
