IM DOING 30 POINTS FOR THIS I MARK BRAINLIEST

As a scientist, one of the most important skills you need is to be able to communicate your thoughts and reasoning in writing. We will be working on growing those skills over the course of this semester. First, though, I need to collect data on where you are with your academic writing skills so I know what you need to work on. That way I won't spend time focusing on anything that you are already a rockstar at!

Please respond to the following prompt. Make sure that you compose a well-written paragraph that is all from your brain only! You can write it by hand or type it.

Why is it important for scientists to gather information before they begin to work on a problem?
