    Sex linkage question help!

    just think of it this way: The Y-chromosome is very small simply because it mostly only codes for the testes and like men themselves, contain very little information. The X-chromosome on the other hand, codes for a multitude of traits. Because the Y-chromosome contains very little information...

    Sex linkage question with diagrams..

    no i dont think this is sex linked - i think it may be more of the case of dominant/recessive. both parents being carriers of a disease (the disease is recessive - thus not being expressed in the hetrozygous genotype) and the disease is expressed in their children having the homozygous recessive...

    Asians 2?

    Whats wrong is that she feels a need to put down the asian race just because she feels that is some how being asian makes her a lesser person. i'm absolutely fine with people choosing to be apart of one culture that isnt their own - but i'm not fine with people slagging off their own race...

    Focus for year 12.

    you should really still pay attention in class for year 11, cuz the HSC really builds upon your understanding of foundation concepts that will be covered in the HSC. for biology, while i agree that not much of yr 11 gets back into the yr 12 syllabus a through understanding of basic year 11...

    Is it better if the girl or guy asks the other out first?

    i think guys should ask first =/ if he likes you he'll ask you - so chillax. (ok not very easy to chillax when you have a massive crush on the guy - but then again, if hes not into you he wont ask you out. nor will he appreciate you asking him out and putting him in a tight spot)

    2U VS General MATHS

    dont do gen. its as much work as 2unit and if you've been learning advanced maths it'll be hard to get your mind to change gears and start thinking in practical terms for maths. Like i did extension maths in year 11 and i dropped to 2unit in year 12 but i cannot answer any gen questions - i look...

    Pens in the HSC

    mmm i cant write neatly - the running writing business screwed my writing up massively lol. Kilometrico pens used to be good. now they just suck - the ink is too light and you have to press hard to get it to write smoothly (i know - i tested like 5 pens from the same batch and they all were the...

    Engagement and the HSC

    Each to his own i guess. i suggest you have a long engagement and push the wedding to next year. that way everything is spaced out... my two cents: I think you should wait a while before you get married. people change, things change, situations change. i'm not saying this is doomed to fail, but...

    How Is IPT for Every 1

    lol... everyone seems to be in the same boat with crappy teachers, dodgy assesments and not knowing anything on the syllabus *sigh* if you're wondering, i'm in that shitty boat too.

    help!!

    i doubt it... just dont let yourself be fooled - if a guy does actually like you i doubt he'd call you names and stuff... (and even if he did, i think he's an idiot for doing that) Go find someone else worth your time and interest =] side note: have you ever tried retailiating when he does...

    Answering Qs in Biology

    if its answering in dot points. DONT DO IT. dot points are only there to help you study and learn the content. and although the questions are based on dot points, it wont be phrased exactly as it is in the syllabus.

    Answering Qs in Biology

    Answering dot points directly is the most efficent way to study for biology - i'm not sure about the other sciences as i dont do them but for biology, answering the dot points is the best way to study for it. What i do is i hand write the notes. however, if you're prone to changing your mind...

    Can anyone predict the answer to my half yearly question?

    i would say the mangroves because mangroves have coping mechanisms such as salt exclusion (the roots can exclude up to 95% of salt in its surrounding environment) and salt secretion (it has salt glands on the underside of its leaves to secrete any salt that has made it past the roots). The...
