PART -A
1. Transparency in scientific ethics.

It is an ethical approach to research which improves research integrity and enhances the informational
value and impact of research. Research transparency encompasses a range of open practices including
registering studies, sharing study data, and publicly reporting research findings.
2. Why is transparency important in scientific research?

Research reporting transparency ensures that studies can be reproduced by other researchers in the field, and
it helps facilitate proper interpretation and dissemination of results by other stakeholders.

3. What is transparency in ethical considerations in research?

Research transparency is a term used to describe the sharing and dissemination of research and
research outcomes. It is considered good ethical practice to share research in an open and transparent way,
both within the scientific community and with the wider public.

4. Outline the significance of Transparency.

Research transparency is a key concept and underpinning principle of open research, promoting
values of openness and transparency in the scientific process. It is an ethical approach to research

Scientific invention refers to the finding of patterns, regularities, and mechanisms underlying phenomena in
our world. Science in general is not guided by practical considerations but by the search for understanding in
its widest sense.
9. How can we use science to the betterment of society?.
Scientific knowledge allows us to develop new technologies, solve practical problems, and make informed
decisions — both individually and collectively. Because its products are so useful, the process of science is
intertwined with those applications: New scientific knowledge may lead to new applications .

10. How do inventions improve society?


The Industrial Revolution, fueled by the steam engine, led to urbanization, economic growth, and significant
Improvements in living standards for many. Alexander Graham Bell's invention of the telephone in 1876
changed the way people communicated, making it possible to have real-time conversations with people far
away.

11. What are the negative effects of scientific inventions?


Unintended Consequences: Many inventions have unforeseen impacts on society, the environment, or other
systems. For example, the automobile revolutionized transportation but also led to issues like air pollution
and urban sprawl..

12. List out the role of scientist in the modern society.

They play an important role in educating nonscientists about the content and processes of science. In fulfilling
these responsibilities scientists must take the time to relate scientific knowledge to society in such a way that
members of the public can make an informed decision about the relevance of research.

13. List out the responsibility of scientist in the modern society.

They play an important role in educating nonscientists about the content and processes of science. In fulfilling
these responsibilities scientists must take the time to relate scientific knowledge to society in such a way that
members of the public can make an informed decision about the relevance of research.

14. Significance of responsibility of scientist in the modern society.

The scientist holds a large amount of power due to their knowledge, education, and research. The way the
scientist uses this power is the main responsibility they have to the public. So, the scientist must consider the
