Answer:

“Necessity is the mother of invention” is the famous phrase and the truth of life which means requirement encourages people to invent new things. Without inventing new things, our life would be just useless and boring with no dreams and expectations. Requirements and needs are the main cause for new inventions.

For the first time, need to fulfill starvation, need to get shelter and need to avoid cold or hot temperature forced people to invent fire, wood, food, clothes, etc for their own sake. It is a human nature that expectation never ends, and nobody is fully satisfied in life with what they have. And this nature and feeling of non satisfaction led people to discover new things in form of inventions.

Necessity is the only cause of these great inventions which was just a dream for all. Many years ago, no one thought that some day they will fly in the sky, they can talk to their loved ones face to face sitting on thousands of miles far from them and one of the biggest achievements was when someone took the first step on other planets like the moon and mars. For the first time, things were invented to fulfil the basic needs of people but later needs were converted into the need of convenience and luxurious. For example, electricity was the basic need of people but different appliances operated through electricity are need of convenience.

Inventions have made human life much easy and convenient in such manner that we even can’t imagine our life without these inventions any more. Inventions are possible without feeling the need or requirements thus we say that “necessity is the mother of invention”

Answer:

"Necessity is the mother of invention"

Necessity is the mother of invention is a popular proverb. The proverb means that when put in a difficult situation, one is likely to think and be inspired to create a novel or ingenious solution. Plato is often wrongly credited with this phrase. This saying appears in the dialogue Republic, by the ancient Greek philosopher Plato. However, the proverb was well known before it appeared in translations of his works.

This proverb means that the primary driving force for most new inventions is a need. When faced with a necessity, one is likely to be inspired to create a novel or ingenious solution. A need or problem encourages creative efforts to meet the need or solve the problem. For instance, the necessity to move bigger, heavier and larger quantities of goods and the need to travel longer distances lead to the invention of wheels which evolved into motor vehicles and trains. We now have ships to sail across vast oceans and planes to fly long distances in a much shorter time never imagined before.

When a necessity cannot be attained by existing means, we are naturally compelled to use our mental faculty and find ways to meet our needs. So a need or problem leads to creative efforts to solve the problem. Necessity is indeed the main force behind every new invention and discovery.
