Let’s start with A.
How many tries do we have?

Deoxyribonucleic Acid!

Let it be known I’m the greatest biology hangman player in the world.

I gotz mad Bio Skillzz

It is a part of a cell.

——– —— ——–

is there E in this word?

——-E —–E -E-E—-

Where are the other hangman players? I find this word so difficult…. 😳
Let’s try with C?

——-E —–E -ECE—-

Letters Guessed Correctly E,C

Letters Guessed Incorrectly

I must admit I have no idea.
How about adding O in this word?

—O—E —A-E -ECE–O-

Letters Guessed Correctly E, C, O, A

Letters Guessed Incorrectly

The last word is a dead give away. I would have gotten it when the letter C was guessed.

I think about the last word-…R?

–RO—E —A-E RECE–OR

Letters Guessed Correctly E, C, O, A, R

Letters Guessed Incorrectly

I would suggest P and T so I get the 3rd word, but I really have no idea of the rest…

T-RO—E —A-E RECEPTOR

Letters Guessed Correctly E, C, O, A, R, T, P

Letters Guessed Incorrectly

I’ve got an idea!!! Next suggestions-K and S

Which would give Tyrosine kinase receptor? Am I correct?

You got it!

Next???????????

I give the end to ping who dicovered most of it anyway, I am not sure I will be able to connect frequently enough this WE to keep the game running. sorry.

I’ll try one

Can I buy a vowel please? E

No e’s

If no one else is going to have a turn – I’ll have another =D

C

Correct – C
Incorrect – E[/code]

It sounds like the next word should be S.

Maybe there’s one T in this word.

I need one C here,what do you think?

M

But maybe there is Y

hmm G

N

O?there must be another vowel.

Hey, this looks fun… Any more? xp

How many letters does your word have?

Oh, am I suppose to come out with a word? I’ve only thought of someone coming out with a word and I do the guessing =p

Anyway, since it stopped for quite a while, please allow me to do the honour to give it a start again.

I don’t know the answer 😳 ! D?

OK.I’m only sure for the first word-phytochrome mechanism?

I’m sorry, alwaysasking. There’s no ‘D’, which makes ping’s answer correct!

It is PHYTOCHROME MECHANISM!

Now, as for the prize for the winner… … …
