      Hi Tori

      It has to be biology – understanding how all living things work

      Physics, because it is the most fun(damental) of the three – all of chemistry and biology depend on the basic laws studied in phyics. Having said that, I don’t tend to to research in pure physics because the cutting edge of physics is hard to push back. There is more grass to mow in biology 😉

      I liked the experiments in chemistry, but I’ve found physics easier to understand. I never studied biology as a separate science (our school only let us study two sciences) – I wish I had because I think it would be useful!

      I think we have had that question before tori, so I so shall cheat a little and copy my answer 😀
      Without a doubt it has to be 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!
