Answer 2

Nursing involves chemistry, since you have to know what is in different kinds of medicine and how they react to each other. Obviously anatomy because you need to know where all the different internal organs and whatnot are and what they do. Biology because a nurse would need to know how cells grow, change, and repair themselves so that wounds or illness in the body can heal properly. Nursing is pretty much all science.

Nursing is related to science because of the use of chemistry and biology. A nurse has to understand the body and how it works. That allows them to understand how medication will work with their body type.
