    Anyone need help?

    Sex-linkage: - Genetic information is carried on the X chromosome, not the Y. -Hence, females are usually carriers if they are heterozygous. If they are homozygous dominant, they are not diseased and are not carriers. If they are homozygous recessive (which is EXTREMELY rare) then they express...

    Anyone need help?

    Gotta love the good ol' polypeptide synthesis. It consists of two stages: Transciption (in the nucleus) and Translation (in the cytoplasm on ribosomes) Transcription: 1. DNA (gene) unwinds with the help of the helicase enzyme 2. RNA polymerase unzips the DNA and synthesises a mRNA strand, with...

    Chylomicrons or Lipoproteins?

    I would say lipoproteins. There a question in a past HSC paper that asked how lipids were transported throughout the body, and one of the options was proteins. Just know both I would say.

    General Thoughts: English Advanced Paper 2

    Module A: Shakespeare & Pacino. Thought it was an awesome question, talked about how the different mediums (in this case a play and docu-drama) accentuated their distinctive contexts (lols using parts from the 2011 HSC qs ahaha) and how through certain values heightened their differences via...

    Section 2 - Creative Writing

    I had a prepared one. About an elderly man in a wheelchair with a motif of 'coldness' running throughout. Some pathetic fallacy shit going on there. Chose the one of the couple with their feet on the grass. Said it was a framed picture on his bedside table, and turned it face down. He went...

    General Thoughts: English Paper 1 (AOS)

    It revolved around an accident which killed his wife and left him paralysed. Basically, at the start he was sad, by the end he was able to let go = transition. Or so I hope

    General Thoughts: English Paper 1 (AOS)

    For my creative, I picked the picture of the man & woman standing on the grass. However, in my creative I said it was a framed picture. I mentioned the picture at the beginning and end, and in the middle I had a flashback to that exact moment they were standing on the grass and explained it...

    Can you take Panadol before exams?

    I would tend to advise against this.. However being hydrated is essential! Making sure you drink lots of the water the night before, and lot's of water before about 10.30am. After that, try to limit your drinking. This will give you enough time to pee before the exam (as there are no breaks cos...

    Personal pronoun in essays

    Well Module B is a 'Close Study of Text.' Basically the marker wants to know what you have learnt/ what has been been changed by as a result of reading the text. Hence, the use of personal voice should be incorporated effectively. Pretty much my whole cohort uses personal voice in some way or...

    850 Words in 34mins

    Okay so I've been doing several Section III practice responses and consistently getting 34-35mins under timed conditions getting 850 words, without my notes. This just includes my prescribed and one related text and my teacher says my analysis is good. What I'm wondering is, should I add...

    Is this a good idea?

    I have Ancient History on the 26th, Then 9 days until SOR2 which requires minimal study. The day after is Chemistry! I'm planning to do the exact same thing as you, I think it's perfectly fine as long you are willing to work hard for a full 10+ days straight.
