what the hell is going on in there, what kind of abomination is that?
>>8079497
I know, right? I just want to munch on it. I would pull it apart down the middle like a fucking RNA and lick the creamy filling. And then I would get super powers.
New flavor goys.

This is a great comedic work. #BESTOFOURTIME
daily reminder that the notion of a disorder is a social construct.
>>8080359
All illnesses are social constructs.
You think there's a rock in God's garden with a description of perfect health engraved on it? We agree on what is and isn't healthy as a society, based on what we know of biology and how it impacts people.
>>8080383
I'm pretty sure not being able to reproduce without medical or societal help is a condition though.
>>8080385
>I'm pretty sure not being able to reproduce without medical or societal help is a condition though.
Why do you think that's a problem?
It's not like we're about to run out of babies.
>>8080389
If you can't see why it's a condition (I said condition), you're retarded.
This is not a debate btw, it's something that rustles my jimmies as OP asked.
>>8079401
>The vast majority of people think DNA is just two loops with bars between them
>>8080385
They are perfectly able to reproduce; they just don't want to.
This is only a problem in the abstract viewpoint of evolutionary success for that individual's genes, but last I checked we only actually cared about the impact of a condition on the person's life, not on the long-term propagation of their genes (unless they find its impact on their long-term gene pool bothersome).
Gender dysphoria, on the other hand, *is* certainly a mental condition in any consistent use of the term, but the way we deal with and think about mental conditions is also seriously fucked up, and in the world where we actually dealt with mental health and variation properly and were consistent with calling it a mental condition this would add up to basically the same result as the people claiming it's not a mental disorder are asking for. Since trying to fit being transgender into current notions of "identity" is probably easier than trying to change the way the public thinks about the entire nature of mental health, I understand why they'd focus their efforts on the former.
>>8079544
So how come it's an offset double helix then?
>>8079544
this calms my soul
>>8079629
the thing that fucks me up about this is that, that backbone and those faux-h-bonds aren't trivial to make
someone went to a lot of effort to define and arrange those molecules
and they fucked everything up
>>8081600
the geometry of the bonds of the backbone define the curvature of the helix
>>8081740
Holy shit you're right. The pattern for the phosphate is also really, really intricate even though it doesn't have any actual significance.
> FUCKING CHEMICAL GLASSES WITH COLOURED SHIT FOR FUCKS SAKE EVERY FIRST ARTICLE ABOUT ANY SCIENCE HAS THOSE
>>8080402
>If you don't think the same as me you are retarded
Nice argumentation, return to /b/ where you belong
>>8080385
Gays can reproduce if they really want to. Or is celibacy a medical condition too?
>>8081589
Then why is sterility a condition EVEN IF a person doesn't want to have children?
>>8079574
>>8081546
>tfw my genetics textbook's cover also displays DNA in this way
It's a good book, but goddamn.

the majority of the people think atoms are round, what's your point
if you need to convey an idea you have to do it in a simple manner, the vast majority of people aren't scientists
>LOL HURRDURR THEY DONT KNOW SHIT ABOUT GENETICS OR BIOCHEMISTRY, WHAT FAGGOTRY
grow up, kid
>>8085116
But atoms ARE round.

Because it doesn't fit in with what our society considers as a healthy person. If you're not healthy, then you're sick to some degree.
Current definition of health by OMS:
>Health is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity.
As the definition implies, all is a social construct. (And I hate that shit, because for example people might wanna be fat just for personal preference, and then we would have to deal with a HUUUUUUUUGE amount of patients that makes us invest TONS of money from the government's budget for health on things that could have been prevented. Wasting tons of money that are needed for other stuff, like patients with cancer or other diseases that needs lots of money from the system. Oh, but wait, that's already happening!)

Oh right. Or that there is a bunch of unrelated chemistry scribbling on the blackboard to testify there is some science shit happening there.

OOOOOOOWHEE
me thinks they are not wearing proper safety masks for the amount of diethylene glycol that's very clearly going to evaporate from that incredibly small boiling flask.
They probably fucked something up in the production too, that color's a bit wrong, makes me think any significant heat is going to catalyze a reaction there.
Say goodbye to your well conditioned hair, and your not-dissolving lungs.

If I were to design an apparatus that had to look chemical-y for the background of a photo or something, I'd just try to come up with the most ridiculous setup I can.

yup i'm triggered.
Atoms are spherical only from very far away, when you get close then, if you could see them, they will start looking like some weird 3d shape that is constantly warping and changing (this is because they're 4-dimensional objects).

literally what
the wavelength of light is too large for "seeing" to make sense at that scale
what are you spewing
>>8088655
String theories are compactified on Calabi-Yau 3-folds. Which are 6 (real) dimensional.
>>8079544
Z-DNA is left handed though.
Op's picture is right handed, meaning it is likely meant to represent typical B-DNA.
copenhagenists literally believe the cat is both dead and alive
>>8079401
what is the problem ? I don't get it

half of the thread is brainlets arguing about the shape of atoms, as if they know their model is the final and true model
