Every day you answer questions-dozens, even hundreds of them. How do you find the answers to questions How can you be sure your answers are correct

Scientists use questions to learn about things. Scientists have developed a way of helping make sure they answer questions correctly. It is called the scientific method. The scientific method can help you find answers to many of the questions you are curious about.
