La ciencia representa a la vez un sistema de conocimientos estructurados que refieren al estudio, investigcióna e interpretción de fenómenos naturales, sociales y artificiales del mundo, como también un método de conocimiento, basado en observaciones y experimentaciones en ámbitos específicos, las cuales deben ser organizados y clasificados sobre la base de principios explicativos ya sean de forma teórica o práctica. En base a estos se generan preguntas y razonamientos, se construyen hipótesis, se deducen principios y se formulan teorías, leyes generales y sistemas organizados.

Based on these, questions and reasoning are generated, hypotheses are constructed, principles are deduced and theories, general laws and organized systems are formulated.
