2. What are the factors that influence the development of science ideas,
discoveries, and technology?

The development of scientific ideas, discoveries, and technology is influenced by

various factors like Curiosity and inquiry, because the innate human curiosity to
understand the world around us is a fundamental driving force behind scientific
development. Questioning existing knowledge and seeking new explanations through
rigorous inquiry sparks scientific breakthroughs.

Several factors have an impact on how scientific concepts, discoveries, and technology
emerge. such as Observations and empirical evidence, Collaboration and
communication, Funding and resources and more. These factors interact and contribute
to the complex process of scientific discovery and technological advancement. By
recognizing and addressing these influences, we can facilitate the growth of knowledge
and the positive impact science has on society.
3. Do you think experiment is still useful in science in the present time?

Absolutely! Experimentation continues to be a vital and indispensable tool in scientific

inquiry and discovery such as Testing hypotheses, Generating empirical evidence,
Validation and replication, etc. While there are other methods of scientific inquiry,
experiments remain an essential component in advancing our understanding of the
natural world. They allow us to systematically explore, test, and refine scientific ideas,
contributing to the continual progress of science.
