Aristotle’s technique of gathering as much information as possible and it contributed to modern science. a. categorizing b. proving c. hypothesizing about d. debunking

A. Categorizing it is the answer. The significance of categorizing allows for comparison and contrast of similar things or ideas. This easily seen in an example related to the development of understanding plants and animals and the categorization into a hierarchical structure with a base that demonstrates origins and the eventual spreading of limbs and branches for related and yet different offspring. After organizing, dissecting and categorizing several different animals, Aristotle made significant initial contributions to biology.
