Study Notes
Research Fundamentals
- Defining an area of interest in research helps to narrow down the scope and focus on a specific problem or issue.
Botany and Food Security
- Botany belongs to the discipline of biology.
- The primary requirement for fulfilling food security is to increase crop yields.
- Botany contributes to food security by improving crop yields.
Research Outcomes and Feeding Sources
- The main outcome of research is to identify problems and find solutions.
- The main feeding source of planet Earth is plants, and botany plays a crucial role in understanding and improving plant growth.
Research vs. Browsing and Comparative Analysis
- The main difference between browsing and research is that research involves a systematic and structured approach to finding information, whereas browsing is a casual and unstructured search for information.
- A side-by-side comparison in comparative analysis aims to identify similarities and differences between two or more entities or concepts.
Identifying Gap Lapses and Grey Areas
- The primary impulse behind the study mentioned in the text is to identify gaps and grey areas in previous research.
- Identifying gap lapses and grey areas of relevant previous studies helps to refine research questions and objectives, and to identify areas that require further investigation.
