DNA?

[phoebepheebsphibs]

waaaaa I get to sleep, wake up and 2 new chaps!!!

also the dna bit, golden

-Notte

I remember when I was a little kid, I used to watch so much BrainPop, and for a season I watched a bunch of episodes about species scientific names like genus and subspecies and junk, and specifically there was an episode all about DNA and how it stands for “deoxyribonucleic acid” and that very day I played like I was a mad scientist and drew the DNA symbol and just randomly walked up to any adult who would listen and spouted off “DNA stands for deoxyribonucleic acid”

And so that chapter was specifically for little Pheebs and her hyperfixation on genetics

(She was also obsessed with proboscis monkeys and basilisk lizards because she watched a lot of Wild Kratts, too)

science joke of the day!

[jesterkilljoy]

for anyone wondering what echolalia is like im in science class rn and i just spent the last 5 minutes whispering "deoxyribonucleic acid" to myself in a british accent and looking absolutely insane lmao

So... now sex and gender are the same?

This person is literally asking for 23andme to lie for someone's comfort. In which case, why do 23andme at all? Just declare yourself the descendant - hell, the reincarnation - of Cleopatra or Ceasar or Joan of Ark or Alexandar the Great and be done with it.

🤦‍♂️🤦‍♀️

Reality has an anti-woke bias.

DND stands for Deoxyribo-Nucleic Dragons

mRNA Translation

-- process of translating sequence of messenger RNA

-- messenger RNA = mRNA

-- turns sequence into amino acids

-- ribosome reads mRNA sequence in groups of three

-- three mRNA letters = codon

-- codons code for an amino acid

-- information begins in the DNA

-- transcribed into messenger RNA

-- translated from messenger RNA to protein

-- information is being transferred from one form to another

-- ribosome travels along the mRNA

-- detects the code as it goes

-- decides what amino acid to add based on the code

-- adds that amino acid to the polypeptide chain

-- this polypeptide chain becomes the protein

In 1970, it was discovered that the reverse process is also possible, where single-stranded RNA is ultimately transcribed into double-stranded DNA (see figure 25.23).

[tenth-sentence]

Because of its close resemblance to deoxyguanosine triphosphate, an essential precursor of DNA synthesis, acyclovir triphosphate is taken up by viral DNA polymerase to form an enzyme-substrate complex on which no 3'-OH exists for replication to continue.

“Gene pool”

Lol my biology teacher wanted us to make an art project involving DNA, so I couldn’t possibly disappoint~

*this may also be a desperate attempt to break into the science side of tumblr-*

[elementcattos]

I think I know something that would've been better to put on there than DNA. GCAT

oh. oh

[canadian-hellbird]

seventeen slices of ham is sending me. like. why do you need that many slices of ham. why is the number of slices of ham so specific.

Also I cast deoxyribonucleic acid.

Guys, let's make a sandwich. I'll start:

DNA

“DNA” is #Afrofuturistic, #SoulFusion #Music that describes its Creator, The Progenitor of SoulFusion Music, both in metaphor and melody. Inspired by Jazz, hiphop, Afrobeat, and other genres of Black Music, DNA, from the project,”Digital Sage” is an embodiment of my journey thru the Knowledge of Self, and making SoulFusion music, a sound characterized and defined by its deep-groove bass lines,…

[inspectorspacetimerevisited]

Whilst it seems completely unrealistic that a species could re-engineer its own DNA,

the Infinity Knights are nearly godlike, so changing the molecular makeup of their bodies is believable.
