5. What knowledge have you connected with past knowledge?

     I would have to say that DNA replication has been talked about in every single science class I have taken probably since 8th grade. Throughout the years though, I have learned something new each class. Sophomore year, it was taught in depth, I didn't really understand it until I had one-on-one time with my teacher. She did a great job on explaining it and I have a great understanding it. Talking about it in biochemistry was just another refresher, plus some details that was forgotten over the past two years.
     Also RNA synthesis has been something I have learned in many classes. This process always confused me, going through the detail once again has helped with a better understanding.
     Going over and over again on certain topics proves how much of an impact the introductory classes are, and how they truly build for your future.
