- Are we required to memorize the the structures of all 20 amino acids? Or is there an easier way?(185031 views)
- If the question asks which of the following types of bonding is least likely to be found in the tertiary structure of a protein, and one of the answer choices is not a type of bonding found in proteins at all, then does that mean that that choice can't be the answer or that that answer choice is the answer because it will never be found in protein bonding?(19898 views)

- I have a question about the notes and lecture. I don't know if I am the only one with this difficulty or if other people have this same problem. It's that when I try to copy the notes, I sometimes lose track of what you are discussing and I don't catch on until a few slides later. But, when I devote my attention to listening to what you are saying, then obviously my notes remain incomplete. I realize that the same notes are made available online. Considering my situation, do you think I should just put the notes aisde and listen completely to you? Or should I continue doing both at the same time at the cost of not understanding some of the stuff you say?(16811 views)
- In the video we watched in discussion, it says that only .5% of the DNA that we have codes for Genes. Other 99.5% DNA is in a sense a junk DNA. And it's also true that we have just twice as many genes as the fruitflies. so, does this mean that fruitflies have all the DNA but it isn't coding for the genes that humans have? And is this concept of Junk DNA universally true in every living thing?
And it's also hard for me to grab the concept that the most of our DNA is kind of junk. So, is it really true that it's junk or whatever it's function is, is so small or negligible that we just ignore it and call it a junk. If so, what is that function?(33605 views)
