What is the DIFFERENCE between Biology, Chemistry & Physics.

Question

I don't need the definition, only the difference :)

Answer 1

Biology is the study of living things.

Chemistry is a study of the properties of matter.

Physics is the natural science that includes everything that is not studied in the other natural sciences (Biology, Chemistry, Earth science and Mathematics.)

Physics is a "catch all" that is why astronomy is considered physics.

Answer 2

Putting in the simplest form.......

PHYSICS-  "physical things' behaviour"

CHEMISTRY- "mistery of chemicals involved in things"

BIOLOGY- "living things"

I hope u find this easy... GOOD LUCK friend. :-)

Answer 3

i hope this isn't toooo simplified, although i know it is

biology: focuses on things at a larger level than chemistry to include plants, animals, etc

chemistry: looks at the miniscule composition and interactions of everything

physics: more technical use (such as in building things) and dealing with stuff like gravity and motion

Answer 4

The universe is not organised into neat departments.  So I hope you will get useful answers, but do not take them too seriously.

Very often, the most interesting areas in science are at the border lines between disciplines.  Examples, biochemistry and molecular biology; quantum mechanics at the boundary between physics and chemistry; and to complete the triangle, the application of physical principles of information science to biological systems.

Answer 5

Technically, chemistry and biology are just subcategories of Physics.  It just takes longer to solve a chemistry problem using the Physics formulas than it does using the chemistry shortcuts.  So there's no difference: physics includes chemistry and biology, plus more.

Answer 6

Biology is the study of plants and animals.

Chemistry is the study of elements and minerals.

Physics is the study of matter and its motion (like forces, gravity, friction, velocity, time, etc.).

Hope this helps
