    HEY BIO PEEPS!! How flopping good does it feel to be done?!?!?! WOOOO! [Chemistry on Monday then I am completely done!] I just had a question on that feedback diagram - was it meant to be a generalised model of feedback, or a model of a specific feedback mechanism??? It was annoying, I...

    Operon theory?

    hey thanks for that, will do =] all of genetics is great, but there are just a few patches - like the hox/hom/gene cascades - that i really haven't looked much at. i hope my bio teacher doesn't have an account (if he does he'll just have to suck it up...), but seriously by our final module...

    Operon theory?

    [Genetics: The Code Broken?] Howdy =D I'm doing the genetics option, and there are a few things that we haven't covered/I'm not confident in. For the dot point: "Outline the current understanding of gene expression" - is this where we need to know about operon theory. I am trying to...

    General Thoughts: Mathematics Ext 1

    I agree with whoever said that it was a really long test. Like, looking back over the exam, it was relatively easy. But I found I was so short of time, for the first time there were questions i didn't even have time to attempt. Question: If I'm topping 3U, but feel like I'm only gonna get...

    General Thoughts: Mathematics

    but it wasn't growing at an increasing rate - it had a limiting sum (i.e. it doesn't keep growing forever). Meaning yes, each year it will grow nine tenths of what it did the yr before...hence you dont add the one. you keep r=0.9 you want it to be less each year otherwise |r|>1, which means...

    General Thoughts: Mathematics

    Wow, it seems like there are some mixed emotions with this exam. I was surprisingly happy with it - do you guys really think this year was harder than previous? I have to disagree - I was working on 2007 and 2006 HSC papers yesterday, and (esp. for Q.10) they were significantly more time...

    Graphing

    Just to clarify - Trebla has just expressed [1/tanx] in a different form. It's still the same thing as [cosx/sinx]. By well defined, he's just pretty much saying that you have to express the equation in such a way that you can enter values and get defined answers. i.e. you can't define...

    HSC '09- the most paranoid year.
