Answers:
1!. Field research is, obviously, research conducted in the field!. Rather than take a sample of a plant, and return it to the lab to conduct tests, you test various objects on site!. Downside, you have less equipment and the conditions are much less controlled!. Upside, if you don't know what the source of your chemical is (as is the case in the movie), you are on site to test many things!.

2!. She wears a mask to prevent spreading diseases to the tribe, if I remember correctly!. The movie makes several references to tribes that have been wiped out by researchers inadvertently introducing serious diseases (that we are immune to or vaccinated against)!.

3!. (Struggling to recall my college chemistry) A gas chromatograph (sp!?) identifies the individual components of a solution based on its mass (among other things)!. When they use it in the movie, they keep getting the same peak on samples that work and it's not there when they try to reproduce the experiment (suggesting that the critical chemical is not present)!.

4!. the cure for cancer

5!. Experiment!? he tries to discover the source of the chemical that caused a remission in cancer among the natives!. The experiment is to reproduce the procedure that results in the cancer fighting substance!. He thinks the source if fruit, but it turns out to be an insect (which was eliminated from his experiment as a contaminant)!.

6!. His hypothesis is that the fruit (!?) is the source of the cancer fighting agent!.

7!. no idea!.Www@Enter-QA@Com

all i remember is sean connery living in the jungle and he thinks he found the cure for cancer!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
