/sci/ - Science & Math

I heard biology is a weak science.

Is this true?

I need some help /sci/ :(
protein synthesis is such a bitch and I'm struggling with my homework.

With what structure is the RER often seen to be continuous, as seen by its association with ribosomes?
I think it's the outer nuclear membrane, yes?

So I would like to start by highlighting the fact that I am trying to be as conscientious as possible in regards to the fact that it may come across as I'm trolling- which I'm not.

I just wondered how far does /sci/ agree that from an evolutionary standpoint, homosexuality is a defect, and that could be why gays are persecuted in society.

I mean I have no prejudice against anyone who chooses to be gay, or didn't choose or whatever may be the case; but scientifically is is fair enough to say that being gay is wrong?

For example, homosexuality is a wall in regards to breeding and generally in Biology if something does not conform to the general population of a species it is considered a mutation, and if it hinders the production of viable offspring then it is considered a defect.

So what does /sci/ think about it, is homosexuality a neurological defect? Do you consider it either physical or psychological?

I might adapt this for my phd thesis in biology next year :)

Biology student here, though not a homework fag.

I kind of understand the concepts within Biology individually, but I feel like I can't see the whole picture, and can't help but thinking that it would make sense if I knew that little piece.

When I look at Biology (particularly cellular functions), I think of it as a massive infinite Rube Goldberg machine. But no matter how many steps you add, it doesn't make sense, without the trigger.)

Could someone explain this so that I can understand it better?


(Tl:dr -- Biology, how does it work?)

Enjoy your leaders America.

So, according to /sci/, if I study biology I study nothing because physicists study all nature already

Does smoking effect cognitive abilities?

let's teach some science to /b/

So, I'm doing a biology licenciature in europe wich is the same as a biology degree in USA, and one of my signatures (optional) is biotechnology

If I take that signature, it would be like if I have also a biotechnology degree in USA?

Why does /b/ hate biology so much? Its pretty much just applied physics and chem anyway.

Also i don't understand it when you say it is all memorisation and no calculations. I do ecology and biotechnology and both require problem solving, ecology even uses maths!

biofag thread ask anything

Fuck you /Sci/, this board is a massive piece of shit.

The only shit on here is fucking threads were you retards fall for obvious religion trolls and stupid physics shit no one gives a fuck about.

Where is all the biology, chemistry and geology, ie the interesting sciences.

There is a reason why all of you are fucking anti-social fucktards, no one gives a fuck about physics!

TLDR: Post more bio and earth science, they are the better sciences.

why are physicists so engineer?( gay)

why do physicists hate biologists?

Hey! i am going to university and i can choose only 1 of the 2 specialties
1Plant protection
2Molecular biology
What can you say about these? which is more interesting and which gives more money?

why do physicists hate biologists?

what is the most lucrative strand of biology for a young chappy to get into?
