    Research involves systematically investigating questions and problems through evidence-based methods to expand knowledge. It builds upon previous work rather than starting from scratch. Research is important as it helps describe phenomena, explain why things happen, predict outcomes, evaluate results, and solve problems. It gathers necessary information to investigate topics and discover new understandings, which can reduce risks and improve lives through advances in health, technology, and other fields. Research is significant across many domains like business, economics, social sciences, health, and culture.
