    Features of a science
    Abstract - 150-200 word summary of the entire thing, including everything (hypothesis, results,
    conclusions etc.).

    Introduction - filter between literature and overarching themes surrounding the area of research until it
    narrows down to your hypothesis and aim(s).

    Method - replicable explanation of the 'how'. Include the design (independant groups, lab study etc. and
    why), sample (sampling method, how many etc.), apparatus/materials (what was used), procedure
    (how you did it, formatted in a systematic way that has verbatim what you said to participants) and
    ethics (how they were addressed etc.).

    Results - level of significance, findings and raw data.

    Discussion - verbalisation of results and contextualised using the research presented in the introduction.

    Referencing - references include books, journal articles etc. There's multiple styles of referencing, for
    example the Harvard style of referencing.
