I know, but it's fun to tease.
At least you're not getting stressed out, which is good.

Hehehehe stress? I don't believe school has stressed me out for a long time. I thank my genes and environmental factors which has shaped my personality so. ._. I guess I'm lucky to be the kind of person that can sleep her worries away... that sounded kind of douchey haha, ah well.
I find that I'm sleeping healthier during exam term than during any other term >_>
edit: The latest YuGiOh abridged ep is actually pretty awesome!!!

Yea, my SHIIII stage is still 23 days in the making. Or does that mean I have been preparing it for 23 days. It's not due for another 23 days. XD
Yes Aruil, but you have work and stuff!
Anyway, yay for end of exams Duct!! So your school year is pretty much over huh?

Yeah. I just finished my Sophomore Year in College. Six exams in three days is killer. Especially when you're studying the toughest major in your university.

Electrical Engineering. I don't know if it's the course material that
s the hardest, or if it's jut because the professors don't understand how to evaluate how well students comprehend the material.

I have not come across school material in my folders that I completely do not understand...... that is what I thought until I started revising behavioural genetics. Maybe I should have done at least a Biology GCSE because I have no clue how DNA works and what polymorphisms even are neutral
Electrical engineering is quite complicated if what I know about it counts as a valid assessment of its complexity. (That was a really convoluted sentence) My friend does engineering and he talks about how hard it is, and it's a traditional "hard" subject, so yea... smile
hey kozi~ i'm going to look at it now.

yeah, there's a bunch of ifferent Engineering disciplines. Mechanical, Civil, Environmental, Computer, Aeronatical, etc. Electrical is the toughest at my school. Next semester I have a four hour lab that requires a 20+ page write-up per week. It's group effort, yeah, but that still doesn't make it any easier. Computer engineers have a similar curriculum, but less intensive, as they have more programming than electricals, but we have more intense hardware knowledge. Mechanicals are all physics junkies which frankly scares the living bejeesus out of me, but their workload is a lot less intensive, and they get to build stuff.
Civals and environmentals have cake walks. The Aero program is almost identical to Mechanical.
The crap icing on the cake is the fact that the professors are all jackasses when it comes to grading. One doesn't give partial credit, so regardless of how well you understand the theory, if you slip up with your math, you're destined to get a D. Another expects you to show a sufficient amount of work on a fully multiple choice exam. Then there's the one who takes the most difficult example from the book, doubles its difficulty, and says "Here ya go, you have 50 minutes. Have fun."
Then there's the lab course whose final exam is worth 50 percent of your final grade. I got As on all my labs, and I got a C. Figure that s**t out.

What is it you need to know about DNA? Also, a polymorphism is when one species in the a certain area display two or more distinctly different phenotypes. For instance the same field of corn, from the same seed, having both red corn and sweet corn stalks.

Well, I don't get the link between DNA, RNA, the translator mechanism (ribosome), amino acid sequence and protein folding. Just these terms and a blurry unclear diagram are on that one slide that I don't get :S
Haha yesterday I was in a bit of a ragequit mode, but after looking at the next lecture it explains some of the bits that I didn't understand (not the above, though, which is also quite important..).
also sorry for not posting, been a bit busy lately >< (but since you're a student, you can only help and hurt +/-1. Genins get +/-2, chuunin +/-3 and so on.)

Bah, he still gets +5 to his next post. Now watch him roll a 20 and not need it, >.<.
As far as DNA/RNA/Ribosomes, I might be able to help at least on a cursory level. You know how DNA is made of the four bases, Thymine, Guanine, Adenine and Cytosine, and from these four bases, two pairs are formed, Thymine-Adenine and Guanine-Cytosine. Well, DNA is copied by breaking up the two half-strands of DNA. Then through a process that I frankly don't remember the name of, a half-strnd of RNA is formed in order to match with each half-strand of DNA. So whenever there is a Guanine in the DNA, the RNA has a Cytosine, vice versa, etc. However, instead of using Thymine, RNA uses a different base called Urasil. So now Wherever the DNA has an Adenine, the RNA will have a Urasil.
Also, there are two types of RNA, mRNA(messenger) and tRNA(transfer). mRNA is formed through the described process.
tRNA is formed after the ribosome accepts the strand of mRNA, and then the two strips of RNA are bonded together. I don't remember the actual inner workings of the ribosome, but there's your link. From there, the Ribosome produces amino acids in accordance with the RNA base sequence.
As far as protien folding. I know that protiens are comprised of long strings of amino acids, and how these protiens fold depends on a number of factors. Hydrogen bonding, polarity of molecules, and by extension hydrophyllic/phobic properties of each individual amino acid are all factors. There may be more but I don't recall the, really.
Whew, that was a lot of memory from sophomore year in High School. I can't believe I learned this s**t four years ago and I still remember it. Too bad it's completely irrelevant to my major, at least until biocomputing becomes a more common practice.

Thanks dude!!! It really does help. Haha, instead of Physics GCSE, I really should have done bio... oh well, no point in complaining now neutral
And at least you still remember it! I don't remember half the stuff I learned in high school. I expect the percentage to steadily decrease as the months go by.
As a side note, looking at the join requests... there's a ten tails now?? (spoiler) I am so behind on the manga. Not that I have any intention of ever catching up <_< >_>
