All knowledge builds off of other knowledge. We build off of things we know to grow knowledge further, rather then having every person discover everything again for themselves.
This concept is often simplified by the famous quote about standing "...on the shoulders of giants, so that we can see more than they, and things at a greater distance...". -Bernard of Chartres
In this way, we take in the knowledge of the past, and improve it. Each generation does not have to invent the wheel in order to build the wagon, we don't have to invent the wagon to invent the cart, and we don't have to invent the cart to invent an automobile.
Modern science is in the same way reliant on the knowledge of other scientists. When knowledge is horded, that knowledge must be re-acquired by others just as wise as those who first discovered it, which takes away time they could have spent moving knowledge further.
This is a simplification of the core issue, though the addition of large financial investments and legal issues complicates it greatly.

Science is a collaborative effort. Scientists make much more progress by working together, than they do by working alone.

You need to specify which collaboration you are referring to if you want to make it possible to answer your question.
A science hotspot is a region or location where there is a concentration of innovative research, cutting-edge technology, and significant discoveries within the scientific community. These hotspots often attract scientists, researchers, and resources, driving collaboration and advancement in various fields of science.

collaboration
By definition, science is created by scientists. There is no science without scientists, so the level of contribution of scientists to science is 100%. Technology requires science as well.
Yes, scientists make mistakes. It's what happens in the world of science. It's how progress is made, through trial and error. If something doesn't work they try going at another angle. So, yes scientists make mistakes too
Clear communication is essential in science to avoid misunderstandings, ensure accurate dissemination of information, and facilitate collaboration among scientists. Clarity in communication helps to convey complex concepts in a way that is easily understood by a broader audience, including other scientists, policymakers, and the general public.
Scientists are innately curious, they want to know the how what and why of everything they see but specifically in those areas that interest them. Isaac Asimovm a science fiction writer remarked that the progress of science is due to the scientists looking at something and saying "That's odd!" and finding out why. The curiosity of scientists rises from their intelligence, powers of observation, tenacity and ability to cross connect events to find answers,
Sharing information allows other scientists to validate and replicate findings, leading to greater confidence in the results. It also helps to advance knowledge and promote collaboration, ultimately benefiting the scientific community and society as a whole.
