The scientific method, scientific research, and scientific inquiry are interconnected processes in our pursuit of knowledge. While the scientific method provides a systematic approach to answering questions, scientific research employs the scientific method in exploring various fields and disciplines, and scientific inquiry covers inherent human curiosity to understand the world and solve challenges.
