      Hiya Mackinaine,
      Its what I enjoy doing. I like finding out new things. I like asking questions. It makes you feel good when you get a nice result. Its very practical. and its varied. I truely find the details of genetics mindblowing, but science in general is just really good fun.

      Hi Mackinaine. Well I have always been curious about how and why things work the way they do, even before I started school and always used to ask my parents and teachers lots of questions! When I was at school I found that I was quite good at science and I particularly liked chemistry because it can explain alot of what we see in everyday life from the processes going on in ours bodies and the weather, to car engines and how we make plastic. Above all I think the most important thing about science is how it encourages people to ask questions about anything and everything. Because although we do not yet have all the answers, and maybe never will, its the ability to ask questions that makes human beings unique. Thanks for you question!
