Science

science banner 1 Science is a systematic and evidence-based approach to understanding the natural world. It involves using observation, experimentation, and analysis to develop theories and explanations for the phenomena that we observe in the world around us. The different fields of science can be grouped into four main categories: Formal science, Natural science, Social science, and Applied science.

The scientific method is a key component of science, and involves a systematic approach to asking questions, designing experiments, collecting data, and analyzing results. Scientists use this method to test their hypotheses and develop theories that can be used to explain natural phenomena. Science has had a profound impact on our understanding of the world and has led to numerous advances in fields such as medicine, technology, and agriculture. For example, scientific discoveries have led to the development of vaccines, the discovery of DNA, and the development of renewable energy technologies.
