The most accurate response is:

Bioengineers work with living matter, while chemical engineers work with inorganic substances.

This highlights the primary distinction in focus between bioengineering and chemical engineering, where bioengineers typically deal with biological processes and organic materials, making them well-suited for developing organic fertilizers.
