Science is a way of studying and understanding the world by experimenting, observing, and making logical conclusions. It helps explain how things work in the physical world. Science is divided into different fields like astronomy, biology, geology, chemistry, physics, and mathematics. Recently, there has been an effort to combine some of these fields, like life sciences and earth sciences. Together, these are called the natural sciences. The physical sciences include mathematics, physics, and chemistry.
