Answer 1

Question

To find scientific knowledge one must use scientific literature databases like Pinned of NCBI, google Search and Medline etc. We can search our interested topic by searching keyword of the scientific study.  

One can make a difference between a news article and peer-reviewed manuscript. These differences are:

I. Scientific paper is divided into many sections like abstract, introduction, material and method, result and discussion, conclusion. On the other hand, news article do not include all these sections.

II. Scientific study is based on scientific experiment whereas news article is only publishing the articles related to current scenario situations.
