BONUS QUESTION: The first company to make a computer with a mouse was Xerox, with the development of the Alto in the 1970s.
Now, let's look at the scientists and their fields:
Isaac Newton is most known for his work in physics (laws of motion and universal gravitation) and mathematics (calculus).
Albert Einstein is renowned for his work in physics , particularly the theory of relativity.
Marie Curie was heavily involved in chemistry and physics . She conducted pioneering research on radioactivity.
BONUS QUESTION: Marie Curie was the scientist who won two Nobel Prizes. She won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1903 and the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1911.
