* Accuracy on the FLEURS speech benchmark, where 100% means no word errors. It is the inverse of word error rate (WER).


Writing system

Urdu is written in the Perso-Arabic script, usually in the flowing Nastaliq style, right to left. It shares its spoken base with Hindi but draws vocabulary from Persian and Arabic.

Dialects

Standard Urdu is the formal register; everyday speech overlaps heavily with Hindi, and regional accents vary across South Asia.

bio-101-lecture.mp31:12:04

00:00Alright everyone, let's pick up where we left off last week on cellular respiration.

00:11The mitochondrion is the site of cellular respiration, where most of the cell’s ATP is produced.

00:24Remember, ATP is the energy currency - basically every process in the cell pays for it.

00:37The inner membrane folds inward into structures we call cristae.

00:46Those folds dramatically increase the surface area available for the reactions.

00:58More surface area means more electron transport chains, and that means more ATP.

01:12There are three stages: glycolysis, the Krebs cycle, and oxidative phosphorylation.

01:25Be able to tell glycolysis and the Krebs cycle apart - that is a common exam trap.

01:38We go deeper into the electron transport chain Thursday, so read chapter nine first.
