I'm thinking about switching to photosynthesis rather than cellular respiration. Does anybody have any experience with this? Lmk in the DM's thx.

The carbon skeleton for amino acids derives from 3-phosphoglycerate, phosphophenolpyruvate, or pyruvate generated during glycolysis, or from 2-oxoglutarate or oxaloacetate generated in the citric acid cycle (Figure 13.8).

How to make a homemade laundry detergent for a sustainable home

DIY: How to Make a Homemade Laundry Detergent for a Sustainable Home

Laundry detergent is an essential item in any home, but there are many questions about the best type of detergent to use and whether it’s possible to make a sustainable choice.

In this article, we’ll explain the basics of laundry detergent and why it’s important for a sustainable home. We’ll also provide step-by-step instructions for making a homemade laundry detergent that is both effective and eco-friendly.

What is Laundry Detergent?

Laundry detergent is a cleaning agent that is used to wash fabrics and other items. It usually contains surfactants, enzymes, and other chemicals that help to break down dirt and stains. Different types of detergent are used for different types of fabrics, so it’s important to choose the right one for your needs.

Why is it Important for a Sustainable Home?

When it comes to sustainability, laundry detergent is an important factor. Many store-bought detergents contain harsh chemicals that can be harmful to the environment. These chemicals can end up in our water supply, which can have a negative impact on wildlife and human health.

Using a natural, eco-friendly detergent is one of the best ways to reduce your carbon footprint and make your home more sustainable. Plus, it’s much better for your skin and clothing!

Step-by-Step Guide to Making a Homemade Laundry Detergent

Making your own detergent is easy and cost-effective. Here’s how to do it:

Ingredients

2 cups of baking soda

2 cups of washing soda

1/2 cup of citric acid

1/2 cup of salt

Essential oils (optional)

Instructions

In a large bowl, mix together the baking soda, washing soda, citric acid, and salt.

If desired, add a few drops of essential oils for a pleasant scent.

Transfer the mixture to an airtight container and store it in a cool, dry place.

To use, add one tablespoon of detergent to a full load of laundry.

Tips for Using Your Homemade Detergent

For best results, use warm or hot water.

To boost cleaning power, add a half-cup of white vinegar to the rinse cycle.

For extra-tough stains, let the garment soak in a solution of equal parts water and laundry detergent for 30 minutes before washing.

For a fabric softener, add one cup of white vinegar to the rinse cycle.

Final Thoughts

Making your own laundry detergent is a great way to reduce your carbon footprint and make your home more sustainable. Plus, it’s cost-effective and easy to do.

By following the steps above, you can make a homemade laundry detergent that is both effective and eco-friendly. So, why not give it a try today?

Why do I have to memorize so many songs for marching band tonight and take a calculus test online after my classes are over, can’t I just go home and go cc shopping for the sims

#I have downloaded so much cc in the past two days for a post I’m working on #it’s all build/buy which I’m terrible at #but I’ll try #I have so much work for school right now and it is terrible #I will now go back to drawing out the citric acid cycle

ramon has fully tapped out of this conversation and has resorted to the citric acid cycle yet again

Bio gradschool is just for people to dumb to make it in medicine. Can you even the krebs cycle.

Y'know I know this is part of your joke anon hate (they're all hilarious btw) but this gave me a violent flashback to how I actually "even the Krebs cycle" the one time I've had to.

Wind back time. It's Spring 2019, and I'm taking biochem. For a test, my Prof asked us to memorize the yields and carbon containing molecules at each step of the Krebs cycle (or Citric Acid Cycle as you'll more typically hear it called).

Me, being the ideological little CS minoring shit I am, knew that I could literally Google it or write a code to retrieve the info for me if I ever needed this information in a real world environment. I also was a lazy little shit with the memory of a goldfish (oh shit that was undiagnosed ADHD wasnt it) and hated any test that relied so heavily on that much memorization.

I've never cheated on a school assignment, and didn't plan to here. So what I did instead was prepared a study sheet with the entire thing in order, decided on a start point, and stared at that thing in the hallway outside the exam room. And I started chanting every bit of information I needed to know to myself, in a rhythm, under my breath, not processing the information, just getting my lips and tongue to know the syllables in a whisper. I put the study sheet away before entering the room, still chanting to myself.

The moment I was allowed to write on the test sheet, I didn't even flip to the krebs cycle problem. I just frantically scribbled everything I was chanting in the nearest blank margin, and then it immediately evaporated from my brain. I then used that as a reference when I actually got to the CAC question.

And yeah, every time I've needed any info about the CAC since, I can look it up as fast as someone who memorized it can write it down. Get with the times, professors.

iirc, I learned it in high school as the Krebs Cycle, but this semester my general bio teacher and textbook called it the Citric Acid Cycle which I like so much better. To that point that now a week later my microbiology teacher is using Krebs Cycle and I I'm feeling such resistance to that name that I'm refusing to even write it in my notes, and switching it to Citric Acid Cycle every time.

#i'm not sure why it bothers me so much #i know nothing about Kreb or Krebs or whoever he was #(im assuming 'he' because I feel like I would have heard otherwise) #so it's not personal. and generally I prefer descriptive names to ones named after people but not usually to the point of refusing t use it #citric acid cycle #gillianthecat goes back to school #hw lb #biochemistry #biology #sometimes my brain is weird

A hypothesis regarding the discolored monster blood in LU

We will be working with the assumption that blood in Hyrule has the same general functions that it does on earth. Our heroes are shown to bleed red and seem to expect blood in general to be not-dark at the very least. Based on earth, red/hemoglobin is the most popular option, though green/chlorocruorin and blue/hemocyanin do seem to be on the table based on my N64 save files.

Bad guys like to have their bases in cool places like volcanos. If Dink is set up near a volcano (+10 points for aesthetic) he and his minions could be suffering from Sulfhemoglobinemia. Sulphur can bind to hemoglobin, causing the affected blood to appear darker in color. If this were the case, however, we would expect the dark blooded monsters to be weaker because their blood would be less efficient at carrying oxygen, and therefore this option is unlikely as the black blooded monsters are shown to be stronger than regular monsters. Also the blood wouldn’t be black exactly, but a darker blue-green, so this probably isn’t the culprit.

Having low oxygen levels in general would cause blood to appear darker (darker red, not blue), but just like above, this would leave the monsters weaker rather than stronger, and therefore this option is highly unlikely.

The dark blooded monsters are referred to as being “infected” and Wind even asks if they’re sick.

Our sailor is a smart pirate lad; infections can and do cause blood discolorations, but this is usually due to the presence of something extra in the mix (which is basically always bad/not going to give you a power boost) and/or the usual problem where the red blood cells are rendered less efficient at their oxygen carrying duties, causing a darker red color. Therefore, a straight forward infection involving a biological agent (bacteria etc.) is not likely.

Blood will oxidize when it is old, which could make it appear dark/black in coloration. This doesn’t really support being extra strong or even alive, but this is the option I think is most likely. Why?

Because magic. This isn’t news, we all knew it was magic already. The Bad Guys are being fueled by an evil dark magical infection of some kind. But why black blood and a power boost specifically?

Assuming that magic is a form of energy, I propose that their cellular respiration may have been magically converted to use the evil dark magic instead of ATP. Why? With a (seemingly?) infinite supply of anger and spite fueled dark energy rather than a limited amount of ATP, and also assuming that dark energy wouldn’t impact the electron transport chain like ATP and the associated energy exchange byproducts would, the muscles of an infected monster would never get tired. This addresses our key issue of explaining the power boost symptom.

While any of the other coloration causes above could work along with this idea, due to the citric acid cycle being eliminated from the picture (and the need for breathing/oxygen along with it), the red blood cells are probably just chilling in the evil darkness infused veins of the baddies, aging and then not really doing anything else until the blood is lost via fighting the heroes. This would explain both the dark coloration and why this symptom is directly tied to the evil dark magic and the associated power boost.

Anyway they probably just have discolored blood for evil dark magic aesthetic purposes, which is also cool, but it was fun to try to create an explanation.

The respiratory pathways produce the central building blocks for synthesis of a wide variety of plant metabolites, including amino acids, lipids and related compounds, isoprenoids, and porphyrins (Figure 12.14).
