2. Find a media piece—article, video, presentation, song, or other—that recognizes the fundamental concepts of chemistry in biology. Include the link or reference citation for the piece and describe how it helped you better understand how fundamental concepts of chemistry affect biology.
There are many types and brands of protein out on the market today, and all of them say they are the best. But, how do we really know which ones are the best for us? The fundamentals of chemistry in biology can help you determine which protein supplement will best be suited for your needs. The magazine “Men’s Health” consistently discusses this topic every month, to help us, the average person understand you don’t always need the most expensive protein out there. Nor, do you always need the latest and greatest, because it may not be compatible with what you are doing.
