Science is a systematic enterprise that builds and organizes knowledge in the form of testable explanations and predictions about the universe. It involves observing, experimenting, and theorizing to understand natural phenomena. Science relies on empirical evidence and the scientific method, which includes making observations, forming hypotheses, conducting experiments, and analyzing results to draw conclusions. Disciplines within science, such as biology, chemistry, physics, and earth science, each focus on specific aspects of the natural world.
