1. Describe the process of translation: initiation, elongation, and termination. Initiation. In this process, the mRNA binds to a small ribosome subunit which then leads to two ribosome subunits binding together. Elongation. This is where the ribosome holds the mRNA and allows complimentary tRNA to attach to binding sites, specifically the “P” site and “A” […]

DNA and Protein Synthesis
1. Explain the structure of DNA – use the terms nucleotides, antiparallel strands, and complimentary base pairing. DNA is a large polymer, made of nucleotide monomersand composed of 2 backbones of sugar-phosphate, shaped into a double helix (see picture below). The nucleotide bases are faced “into” each other and are formed by hydrogen bonding between […]
Is Technology Good or Bad
https://youtu.be/iD3FifHI5Pk Is technology good or bad? Technology is the future of our world, but it is up to us to decide whether that is going to be for the better or for the worse. At first glance, technology seems to enhance globular networking and connect us with countries across the world, but looking at the […]

Poetry in Life
This is my “Poetry in Life” project that we did in English 11 honours where we relate a work of poetry of our choosing to locations based on how they make us feel. I chose a poem from the bible called “Love is Patient.” Follow this link to know my thoughts! Enjoy.
Week 17 – Sine and Cosine Law
This week in pre-calculus 11, we extended our knowledge about the different methods of solving triangles. We learned to methods of doing this known as Sine Law and Cosine Law, both demonstrated below. Thank you so much for reading! Hope you learned something!
Week 15 – Adding Radical Expressions
This week in pre-calculus 11, we continued to learn about radical expressions. What I would like to focus on for this blog post is adding radical expressions. There are four steps to adding radical expressions which are as follows: Determine the lowest common denominator. Rewrite each fraction as an equivalent. Combine numerators. Reduce if possible. […]
Week 14 – Equivalent Rational Expressions
This week in pre-calculus 11, we had our graphing test then got straight to work on our next chapter: Rational Expressions. We started off by reviewing basic factoring that we’ve been doing for the past couple years. Then following our review, we started learned about multiplying, dividing, adding and subtracting rational expressions. I found this, for […]
Week 13 – Graphing Reciprocals
This week in pre-calculus 11, we learned about graphing reciprocal functions. The hardest part about this was graphing quadratic reciprocal functions, because there are three different forms depending on how many roots it has. This equation contains one root. This equation contains two roots. This equation contains no roots. Thank you so much for reading! […]
Week 12- More Graphing Inequalities and Systems
This week in pre-calculus 11 we learned about how to solve quadratic systems. Most questions were based on two lines either quadratic-quadratic or linear-quadratic. There are multiple ways of find the solution for where both lines cross, like graphing or elimination. However, in class we learned about the process of substitution. This is the process of […]
