I hear about advancing research in physics, chemistry, and biology all the time (i.e., tons of stuff that is being explored or has yet to be discovered). But not so much in math... so what is the frontier of math? What has yet to be discovered (except those hundred year old theorems that no one can prove)?
Since I have a degree in Biology and Chemical Engineering, can't say much about physics.............. I have to pick Chemistry............
Absolutely hated biology at school. I found it incredibly boring. Was indifferent towards physics. Liked chemistry. Now I'm studying physics.
Chemistry of course.I found Physics quite boring and so is Biology. Math cracks me up every time I come across 'em,caculus,etc.
Biology by far. The study of life itself. That's pretty f'ing amazing. I like to concentrate on microbes, but there are a million other applications of biology out there. Everyone can find something they like in bio - it's just a matter of finding it.
Physics, hands down. It doesn't just study living things or how things react to one another. Its the study of everything that makes the universe!
i like physics the bests out all 3 listed, bio is the easiest for me, chem....i hate it and i suck at it as well.
I've always thought: Biology is the "what," Chemistry is a little of the "what" and more of the "how," Physics is a lot of the "how" and more of the "why." Physics, by far, tries to explain more than the other two subjects, thus making it the most interesting (though a crappy Physics instructor ruins that completely). It is near impossible to find a process that is solely biology, chemistry, or physics. So to say one is less important than the other is a terrible appreciation for the sciences. Example: Stars going boom release fundamental elements which are the origins of life. You've got all three tied up in that simple statement, but physicists have spent decades trying to explain it. And if you think the research being done on genetics is "wimping" out, then I think you're crazy. I prefer researching biology, studying chemistry, and reading about physics.
I can think of a lot of processes that involve physics only, with no chemistry and certainly no biology. Example: using your same star, you can describe its entire lifetime up until the point it goes "boom" without using any biology at all. And because the star is so hot, there is almost no chemistry involved either (everything is completely ionized). The only thing important to the evolution of the star is the physics, e.g. nuclear fusion, convection, radiative transfer, etc.
