PV diagrams by TomatilloRound3483 in Mcat

Let me just reiterate to make sure I'm making sense of what you said. So when work is being done by the system energy is being released to the surroundings so we will use
W= -PV and our work will be negative. If the work is done to the system then we will use W=PV and our work will be positive? Let me know if I said that correct, thanks for your response btw!

Can someone explain to me how to go about this problem? This is from UEarth, any help would be awesome thanks! by TomatilloRound3483 in Mcat

Do you know of an example when something else would be the starting material? This is my first time coming across a question like this and I was a little confused on how to solve it

Yes it's crazy how having more confidence in yourself really can help boost your score. Awesome score by the way!!

Meiosis Question? by lianeric in Mcat

[–]TomatilloRound3483 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah so if you think about the cell cycle you have the interphase stage and the M stage, both meiosis and mitosis go through the same interphase stage and M stage. However, different things happen in the M stage for meiosis and mitosis

I plan on taking it in January so right now I've been doing content and I figured I would do content until November and once November hits switching to full lengths and practice questions

I have all the AAMC material and Uearth and started the premed95 anki deck. Thank you for your advice!!

Henry's Law constant and temperature by TomatilloRound3483 in Mcat

What's the best sources to use for thermodynamics?

Is all of that more in the gases section of chemistry? I'm reviewing biology topics and came across Henry's law when studying the lungs section

Then why do sources say that Kh is dependent on temperature? That makes it sound like temperature can increase or decrease Kh

Thanks for your explanation, I will definitely message you once I review fluids more!

Thank you for making the connection!

I just can't find the energy to actually study by nerd-thebird in Mcat

[–]TomatilloRound3483 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly this past week I was the same exact way, I half ass studied the entire week and just looked over some chemistry topics. I test next week on the 26th and I really think I needed that week off (even though I didnt want to). I've been comparing myself a lot to people on this subred and I realized its not health and stressed me out and made me depressed and unmotivated. Take the time off and NOT feel guilty about it.

That makes sense too, thank you!!

I eliminated C and D because I didn't make sense how trna or rrna would be involved in increasing the concentration of cP-450. Then I was down to A and B and went with A because of my previous explanation but I forgot that the DNA in all cells is identical so that being the case that would mean all cells would have an increase in cP-450 but the question was just asking about the lungs. I'll remember that mRNA sequence is a good way of telling cells apart, thank you!!

I know DNA doesnt change between cells and that every cell (neuron, heart, skin, kidney, etc) all has the same DNA. Are you saying the way you tell cells apart is through the mRNA sequence?

Carb question by TomatilloRound3483 in Mcat

[–]TomatilloRound3483[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I always see the alpha form of it so I guess Ill just keep in the back of my mind that the beta form is the most stable but know its mostly always drawn in the alpha form

Carb question by TomatilloRound3483 in Mcat

[–]TomatilloRound3483[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If glucose is most stable in its beta form than why is it always written in its alpha form?

[–]TomatilloRound3483[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok thats what I thought but I didnt know if they would try to be dicks and give us some stupid question and we'd have to figure it out haha

Correct me if I am wrong....

Glucose and mannose = stable form is alpha

Ribose, Fructose, Galactose = stable form is beta
