Cenral Dogma of Molecular Biology

Central Dogma and Protein Synthesis
From: cgales, 1 year ago





A lecture presentation on the central dogma of molecular biology based on Cambell Biology.


SlideShare Link

These slides have made my life so much more easier. Well..previously (ehem..i don't know if Dr.T had mentioned..since i didn't listen during his lecture) i didn't know at all that the upper strand is for RNA primers while the lower is for DNA...
I had a clue that RNA primase was used to add RNA primers to one of the strand..but no idea that nucleotides were added by DNA polymerase at the same time to the other strand.
uh-huh...

So, Just to share ;)

Anyways..lately i have been MIA due to the non-ending reports and assignments and I-don't-know-what-else-but-time-just-flies-without-me-realizing slacking moments.
And yesterday, Pig and Bunny were discussing about Bunny's recent term test results--which were not good.

Totally not good.

So we talked about clever cheating -- as in cheating in during the test which Sponge's dear bro.the Gee, is extremely wonderful at.
I'm not saying that cheating is wrong because sometimes; to be honest, i do look around during term tests. But most often than not, I'm being rigid to my principles -- which is; I don't care about my score as long as i'm being honest with it.

True, i may score damn good IF i cheat But, what's the point? I wouldn't know what i was studying and that's one major problem. When i can't understand such simple facts during Uni level...how can i perform when i am working? And what is the whole thing about studying and learning when I don't learn?

Basically I thought, there's no point to cheat during a test. To me, the whole learning process is for me to understand what the things that I'm studying is all about.
Oh well..though sometimes, I'm blur at the whole idiotic picture but still...at least i get what i'm studying (and that is pretty frustrating because it's not like i can score good eventhough i understand due to my short term memory).

SO, which means I HAVE TO STUDY TRIPLE HARD FOR MY FINALS SINCE ALL THESE TERM TESTS CONTRIBUTE 30% TO THE FINALS AND I SO STUPIDLY RUIN IN BY STICKING TO MY PRINCIPLES!

i actually think that people without principles are most likely to be successful because by hook or crook, they will make sure that their goal is achieved whereas honest people are those who will mostly likely be a beggar because honest people are the good ones and since when do you see good people with a kind heart gets what they deserve in life?
they will either be cheated or be taken advantage of.

MUAHAHAAA....

okay...forget about the above. it's my cynical side talking. I'll ask her to shut up and stop ruining my positive mind.

Ciao.

(but for sure I know...my MB will not be getting any As or B+ ... thanks to the term tests)
