      That’s a very good question, and a very easy one to answer snowdona!
      Physics. Physics is the building blocks that all other sciences rest upon. Even if you go down to cellular level in biology or elements in chemistry, they are all brought together by physics. On top of that, physics includes time and space travel – two things I am fascinated by! 😀

      Hi

      I prefer biology – understanding our body and the other living things around us

      Physics!

      (which might seem strange, given my work in biology and medicine, but I’m always working to sneak a bit of Physics in).

      Chemistry is very important, but I’m not particularly good at it – so I have some friends that I ask for chemistry help when I get stuck.

      Hi
      I enjoyed the experiments in chemistry, but found physics easier to understand. I never studied biology as a specific science, but wish I had as I think it would have been useful.

      I’ve never been a huge fan of Chemistry. Human biology is fascinating because the human body is just so complex and well designed it is mind-boggling. Physics on the other hand gets down to the nitty gritty of how things exist, move and hold together – from the smallest quantum forces to the vastness of space – so I ‘m going to go with Physics as my final answer!
