Hello there. I am happy to help you.

The answer to this is because there are many different kinds of problems that science can address, and the "scientific method" that's taught in every high school science class isn't appropriate for every type of investigation. Scientists custom-build the procedure they will use depending on the unique challenges of the problem they are trying to solve.

Good luck.
