a. Why do you think chemistry is considered as the bridge between Physics and
Biology?

Chemistry acts as a bridge between physics and biology, because the laws of physics are similar to
chemistry, and chemical reactions are at the heart of biological processes.

b. In your own words, why is chemistry important? You may enumerate relevant
examples which you think makes chemistry an important branch of science.

Chemistry is important It seems boring but it explains the world around us, especially in
everyday life. We use chemicals every day and perform chemical reactions without
thinking much about them. Example is when we are cooking, the interaction of the
ingredients in a food, washing laundry using bleaches.
