Science is a systematic pursuit of knowledge about the natural and social

world, based on evidence, observation, and experimentation, aiming to


understand and explain phenomena.
Here's a more detailed explanation:
Systematic Approach:
Science uses a structured method, often involving observation, questioning,
experimentation, and analysis, to gain knowledge.
Focus on Evidence:
Scientific knowledge is built upon empirical evidence, meaning it's based on
what can be observed and measured through experiments and data collection.
Explaining Phenomena:
Science seeks to understand and explain the natural world, including how
things work, why they happen, and the underlying principles that govern them.
Branches of Science:
Science is a broad field encompassing various disciplines, including natural
sciences (like physics, chemistry, and biology) and social sciences (like
economics, psychology, and sociology).
Examples:
Science helps us understand why the sky is blue, how medicines work, or why
the earth orbits the sun.
