Fabrication (science)

Fabrication is when scientists create something new by putting different pieces together. It's like making a puzzle. Scientists usually use it to make something bigger or better than before. For example, if you wanted to make a really large toy truck, you might need lots of small parts like wheels, doors and windows. You can use fabrication to put all the pieces together and make one big toy truck from all the pieces.
