ATP: The Perfect Energy Currency for the Cell - http://www.trueorigin.org/atp...
this explains about ATP in very detail about the structure, function, production and so on. o think it will be useful to read through some of the material as it helps to clear some points about ATP used as a currency. for example, ATP is converted to ADP and Pi in which ATP is spent. then ADP is immediately recycled in mitochondria by recharging to produce ATP. some of its function is to transport ions across the cell membrane and used as an on/off switch to control chemical reactions. - Gagandeep Bawa

It will either be fat or carbohydrate - Roisin Thomas
how do u if its fat or carbohydrate? - Gagandeep Bawa
i get it how its either fat or carbohydrate. thanks - Gagandeep Bawa
im very pleased with my #BS1011 marks. thanks to everyone who helped! :)
this relates to 'BS1006 lecture we had this week. this is helpful to understanfd the organisation of skeletal muscle. it goes through in detail about all the structures in skeletal muscle. - Gagandeep Bawa
this is very useful for the revision of #BS1006. there is an animation that goes through stretch reflex and this is very helpful as you can actually see what is happening. there are also notes underneath the diagrams to explain what is happening. - Gagandeep Bawa
ur welcome! :) - Gagandeep Bawa
This relates to Fragile X syndrome which was discussed in today’s #MB1005 lecture. Fragile X syndrome is a genetic condition that has affected many individuals and families. It is caused by gene changes in the same gene, called the FMR1 gene. Fragile X consists of fragile X syndrome, fragile X-associated tremor/ataxia syndrome and fragile X-associated primary ovarian insufficiency. Fragile x syndrome is the most common cause of inherited mental impairment. - Gagandeep Bawa
this site tells you about the Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism in detail which is related to #MB1005 lecture we had today. it also goes through the process of RFLP and how they are examined. there are also examples of them which will be helpful to understand the concept better. - Gagandeep Bawa
this site is very useful in explaining the patch clamp method. this relates to today's #MB1004 lecture. after reading through this, i understood better about patch clamp method. - Gagandeep Bawa
this relates to today's #MB1004 lecture we had today. it explains the hydropathy plot. The hydropathy plot is used to find clusters of hydrophobic amino acids to determine the transmembrane region. there are also examples of Glycophorin which helps to understand the concept better - Gagandeep Bawa
this is a very useful site informing us about the process of gel electrophoresis. there is an animation that goes through each step and this helped me to better understand the concept of gel electrophoresis for the #MB1031 report. - Gagandeep Bawa
Gangandeep are u in library? - Jalal Freedom
no. im not - Gagandeep Bawa
Hahaha, that was fun :) - Jennifer Kwan
for the #MB1031 report, do we have to do double-spacing?
Friendfeed feedback
i personally enjoyed using friendfeed as it helped me to gain a better understanding of the topics covered in the lectures. its one of the best place to come if you are really stuck as there will definitely be some links to help you out and they are also course specific.. - Gagandeep Bawa
i thought #MB1005 lecture today was quite interesting even though we have covered most of the things.it was kind of a revision. i really like the way how Dr Cashmore explains each and every point on the each slide. this is very helpful!
i enjoyed the #BS1006 lecture today. i thought Dr Storey's lecture notes are very helpful and to the point. i like the way that she gives us a break before going on to the next topic. it was good that she went through some of the exam questions to give us an idea how the exam questions will be like.
I think the break are really useful, as it help me to pay more attention and understand the full lecture without having and doubt. - Jalal Freedom
this site is very useful as it covers the main points covered in today's #BS1006 lecture. it describes the composition of each organ and how they are involved. for example, Parietal cells secrete hydrochloric acid intrinsic factor. moreover, it illustrates the main points of each component of the cell. - Gagandeep Bawa
I agree the website is really useful as it helped me compelete my notes. :D thanks - Jalal Freedom
this relates to #BS1006 lecture we had today. it gives an overview of the structure of the stomach, there are also images of intracellular gastric electrical activity showing how they vary. - Gagandeep Bawa
This website explains what oral bioavailability which was explained in today’s #MB1004 lecture. Oral bioavailability is the amount of the drug which actually gets into the circulation. I thought this will be very useful in gaining a better understanding of oral bioavailability. - Gagandeep Bawa
Thanks for that :) - Fiona Wright
ur welcome! :) - Gagandeep Bawa
Very useful! Thanks for the link :D - Sharon Yim
ur welcome. :) - Gagandeep Bawa
This site explains the concept of drug pharmacokinetics. Pharmacokinetics is the study of what the drug does to our body. It describes the routes of medication: oral, sublingual, rectal and so on. It also explains the first-order kinetics and how it works with a worked example. It supplements really well with #MB1004 lecture we had today by Dr Norman. - Gagandeep Bawa
this site explains the process of urination as discussed in #BS1006 lecture yesterday. it goes through the function of the bladder. the bladder can approx. hold about 400-600ml of urine for five to six hours. so when the bladder is about half full, the stretch receptors in the walls of your bladder become active and send signals along your pelvic nerves to your spinal cord. The contraction of the bladder increases the pressure in the bladder. when the external sphincter is under voluntary control, you don’t urinate until you decide to relax this muscle. - Gagandeep Bawa
This is a very useful site which illustrates the formation of concentrated and dilute urine as discussed in #BS1006 lecture yesterday. There is an animation which goes through the process of how concentrated or dilute urine is formed using juxtamedullary nephron. - Gagandeep Bawa
i thought the poster presentation today was a very different experience and i enjoyed it. i thought this was helpful as we gain a better understanding of the topics we did. it was fun working as team :)!
this video gives an overview of the function of the kidney. it relates to #BS1006 lecture we had yesterday and it makes a lot more sense when we can visualise the whole process together. - Gagandeep Bawa
this relates to albinism which was discussed in today's #MB1005 lecture. it describes how its affected and precautions the affected individual should take. it also tells you about the genetic component involved.its actually quite useful to read. - Gagandeep Bawa
this article decribes what Huntington's disease is and this will be very useful for the presentations in #MB1005. at first i wasnt quite sure about it but after reading the article i have gained further understanding. its a disease which damages some part of the the brain and symptoms ususally appear between the age of 30 and 50. moreover, there is no cure for this disease and all we can do is to take good care of the person. - Gagandeep Bawa
Conducting System Of The Heart - http://www.youtube.com/watch...
Conducting System Of The Heart
Play
this is a very useful as it illustrates the conducting system of the heart. it really helps when we can actually see how it is happening as it becomes much easier to remember. it relates to today's #BS1006 lecture. - Gagandeep Bawa
this is really good site explaining the conduction path through the heart as explained in today's #BS1006. there is also an animation which decribes what happens in each step. this will be very useful for exam revision. - Gagandeep Bawa
glad that i have finished my genes report. it took a while to understand what was happening. especailly drawing the map of the plasmids.
Harry and Jennifer thanks for helping :)! - Gagandeep Bawa
Your welcome :) It was a case of mutualistic symbiosis...thanks for your help too. - Jennifer Kwan
your welcome :) - Gagandeep Bawa
i thought the #BS1006 practical yesterday was quite interesting. i really enjoyed it and it was totally different from all the other practicals we have done so far. im looking forward for the practical next week.
this is a really good website especially for #MB1005 presentations(acetylcholine). there are several images illustrating how different receptors work.moreover, it tells you about how each receptor in different organs work. there are two types of acetylcholine receptors:nicotinic and muscarinic - Gagandeep Bawa
