I find the tutorial at the link below very helpful to understand the structure of collagen as a fibrous protein. We can thank Kathleen, Jingyi and E-man for it. I would like to congratulate both groups (Jean, Ying Jee and Adelyn too) for an excellent first effort. Looking forward to the next two groups' presentations:
Group 3 - Jane, Indra and Nigel
Group 4 - Soo Qing, Santhana and Kelly

sir, is santhana. u typed wrongly
ReplyDeleteoops...sorry about that. corrected it already. ;)
ReplyDeletesir, when is bio test? is it on weds? reena here.
ReplyDeleteyes reena it's still on wednesday. sorry i couldn't make it for class today. will see you guys tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteHola!! How are you, sir? Hope you are in the pink of health already. We miss your class so much...hahas! Hope to see ya tomorrow. =)
ReplyDelete~Angie~
hi angie! nice to know my class was missed.
ReplyDeletenot quite fully recovered but on meds. will be seeing you guys in class today though. :)
Hey Mr.J. aiman here. i came across this word (cytoskeleton) when going through the structure of prokaryotes. wonder if u could explain further. thanks MJ =)
ReplyDeletehey aiman. actually that is a recent discovery. it has always been thought that cytoskeleton is unique to eukaryotic cells but recently researchers have found cytoskeleton in prokaryotes as well. the function seems to be the same as in it's part of the internal scaffolding to hold up the structure of the cell.
ReplyDeletedoes that help?
okay, i'll try to understand that. haha. thank Mr.J.
ReplyDelete~aiman~
I don't quite understand Mr. Jaya..
ReplyDeleteWhat do u mean by "part of the internal scaffolding to hold up the structure of the cell"?
oh sorry nigel, it just means that it's part of the internal skeleton of the cell to give it its shape and help it move.
ReplyDeleteMr.Jaya, about the bio journal, mine seems to be like a summary or a skeleton of the chapters. for example, rather than defining the organelles, i have tabulated all the info i hav on them and for the microscopes, it's like a page explaining the uses, skills etc. is this wrong? what is the aim of the journal? to help me understand how to go about it. kathleen here
ReplyDeletehey kathleen, the main aim of the journal is twofold:
ReplyDelete1. to keep you reading your bio material
2. to provide you with your own last minute reference when you're preparing for you exams later.
does that answer help? anyways, just show me what you have and i'll make comments then. ok?
ok, i understand better, thanks
ReplyDeleteerrrr peeps, wat's wrong with Santhana at the beginning? XD
