In summary, confusion and curiosity are essential traits for a scientist. Confusion allows a scientist to question and challenge existing beliefs, leading to new discoveries and advancements. Curiosity drives a scientist to explore and seek answers to unanswered questions, leading to a deeper understanding of the world around us. These two traits work together to push a scientist towards innovation and progress in their field of study. Without confusion and curiosity, scientists would not be able to push the boundaries of knowledge and make groundbreaking discoveries. Therefore, these traits are crucial for the success of a scientist.
