D
To reduce the emphasis of single subject in research domain
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Advances fundamental understanding or solves problems whose solutions are beyond the scope of a single discipline or area of research practice.

Detailed explanation-2: -A holistic approach to learning Interdisciplinarity is defined as ‘the involvement of two or more academic, scientific, or artistic disciplines’. Applied to learning, this would mean taking a holistic approach, combining multiple disciplines to achieve one common purpose.

Detailed explanation-3: -Compared to traditional approaches, an interdisciplinary approach expands what students learn by allowing them to tackle problems that don’t fit neatly into one subject. It also changes how students learn by asking them to synthesize multiple perspectives, instead of taking what they’re told by a teacher at face value.

Detailed explanation-4: -We are speaking of disciplinary research, when each discipline uses its set of tools (methodological approaches) to address its object or objective and no exchange exists between disciplines. The disciplines set the starting points – and also predetermine the outcomes of the research.

Detailed explanation-5: -An interdisciplinary approach involves drawing appropriately from several disciplines (or separate branches of learning or fields of expertise) to redefine problems outside of normal boundaries and reach solutions based on a new understanding of complex situations.
