Problem solving

Problem solving in science is the process of using observation, experimentation, and logical reasoning to answer questions about how the natural world works and to find solutions to real-world challenges. Scientists identify what they don't know, design careful tests to gather evidence, and analyze their results to either support or reject their ideas, building knowledge step by step. Whether investigating why plants grow differently under certain conditions or developing new medicines to treat diseases, scientific problem solving relies on curiosity, creativity, and a willingness to learn from failures.
