Answer:

There are many questions that can be answered by science but I will provide some examples below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Science involves many areas of study, from biology and chemistry to physics and neuroscience. Generating questions and providing answers are the most important steps in science as this process has allowed thousands of scientists to develop new drugs to treat previously-mortal diseases, to protect endangered species, to prevent population declines, to understand the behavior of fauna, among many other remarkable outcomes and discoveries.

In this answer, I will focus on some questions belonging to the life sciences areas that can be answered by science:

Biology

How does climatic phenomena, such as El Niño and La Niña, affect the migration of whales?

Neuroscience (humans)

Is schizophrenia hereditable?

Behavioral Ecology

Does climate change affect the capability of cuttlefish to camouflage?

Neuroscience (Animals)

Are killer whales capable of problem-solving?

Ecology

How does the reduction of apex predator populations (terciary consumers) affect the population of secondary consumers?

Conservation Biology

Why do increased temperatures lead to coral bleaching? What is the mechanism and how can it be controlled?

Animal Behavior

What is the mechanism that Ophiocordyceps unilateralis (Zombie fungus) uses to manipulate ants for its own disperal?

Parasitology

Does the parasite Toxoplasma gondii induce erratic behaviors in humans?
