A lava lamp is a study in physics. The lamp functions on density and that density or mass as it is called, changes with the addition of heat to the container. When heat is applied the substance that floats changes to lighter mass and begins to rise. When it reaches the top where it is cooler, it gets dense and sinks.

Explain the advantages and disadvantages of subdividing science into many different areas?

The problem with subdividing science into diffrent ares is that there is often overlap between them. The boundary around each area of science is not always clear. For instance, much of biology is also chemistry, while much of chemistry is also physics. And a rapidly growing area of physics is biophysics, the application of physics to biology.

What should you do for a science project but without a source of heat?

Depends- Biology, chemistry, or physics? Biology could be a study of plant growth influenced by different factors, physics could be a study of magnetic fields, chemistry can be a study of chemical reactions, generation of gasses, etc. Find an area you like, do some exploring- and remember that the research and write-up of your project is the important part.

Which science is the most complex chemistry or biology or physics?

The most complex science between the 3 is biology followed by chemistry and next is physics. This is because Biology as a science encompasses the nature and laws of life (scientifically), which means that as a science that studies life it ranges from the microscopic to macroscopic level of understand and acquiring knowledge about life. Biology in microscopic level includes the study of the cells, its components and the macromolecules that makes up for each components , how they work and what makes an organism alive up to the macroscopic level that includes the ecology understanding how organism interact with each other and with their environment, how environmental changes drives evolution and how evolution changes the way life goes with the living organisms. Hence, biology includes both understanding the science of chemistry and physics.
