Give reasons in support of your answer.

Dear Student

Mrs. Wason is experiencing the aspect of both science and art. Both Mr. Madan and Ms. Sachdeva are right.
It is science because:
1. Systematised body of knowledge: Science is a Systematised body of knowledge. its principles are based on cause and effect relationship.

2. Principles are based on Experimentation: Scientific principles are first developed through observation then tested through repeated experimentation.
3. Universal Validity: Scientific Principles have universal validity applicability which can be applied in different places at different points of time.
It is art because:
  1. Existing Literature : All art forms such as music, dance presuppose a defined body of knowledge and literature. Medical sciences is also a body of defined knowledge.
  2. Dynamic Application : Art is the personalised applicability of the existing knowledge. Each individual uses the basic knowledge in his own creative way.
  3. Practice and Creativity : Art involves practice and innovation. The artists use the existing literature as per his own creativity and innovation
