Venting
Grrr, I'm trying to work on this Neruo Bio homework, but the professor is just so bad! Here's an excerpt from one of his lectures:
"Use ATP to turn cyclic AMP.....I'm sorry.....to turn...um...to turn AMP to cyclic.....right....what am I saying?...OK, to make cyclic AMP...sorry, I got a little confused. This is the stop here, the phosphodiesterase breaks it down back into AMP."
That last sentence doesn't even fit with what he was trying to explain to us, that ATP is turned into cAMP. What's this "stop" he's talking about?! And it doesn't help that he said the next few sentences at lightning speed so nobody could actually catch what he was talking about. Sadly this is not a one-time occurrence, he's like this all the time. *Sigh* I hate paying hundreds of dollars per lecture to listen to junk...then get graded on it. So I guess I'll try and decode his lecture notes even more...
