(Biology) Rice Transfer Short Essay- Why did you choose your major/degree plan

Rice Transfer Essay : Why did you choose your major?

When you are little everything seems like magic. You bend your arm by some unknown force. All you have to do is to think about it and it happens and you wonder how. By elementary school you know that you have muscles and bones but how does that red blob in the picture contract and why does it burn when I run? By high school you have a basic understanding of protein filaments and metabolism but how are these processes controlled and what controls how these process are made? This is why I am fascinated with cell biology and biochemistry. When you learn more you find you only have more questions and you find that asking the right questions is the only way to learn. While this cycle would drive many insane I have always been drawn to this way of thinking. Cell biologists are often accused of being purely reductionist and falling into the trap of changing the question rather than finding the answer. While simplification is key to understanding the true holy grail of biology is knowing how these parts and processes come together to make the whole. This search is why I am a biologist.

Interesting and well-written so far. Do you have room to expand on some of your points? This part in particular seems as if it could be elaborated on considerably:
