identify the 3 components that make up DNA
|
nitrogenous base, sugar, phosphate group
|
|
name the 4 nitrogenous bases
|
A, T, C, G
|
|
be able to pair the bases according to their ability to bond
|
A-T
T-A C-G G-C |
|
identify how the 3 components bond to form a DNA double helix molecule
|
the 3 components sugar, nitrogenous base, and phosphate group bond by connecting together and forming a nucelotide. This makes up many monomers in the polymer DNA.
|
|
how to draw/create model of DNA
|
shaped like a double helix, double stranded
|
|
describe what my DNA looks like
|
double helix and double stranded
|
|
distinguish differences and similarities of DNA and RNA
|
Differences:
DNA is double stranded RNA is single stranded RNA contains different sugar from sugar found in DNA RNA contains U instead of T instead of DNA DNA stays in nucleus, RNA can leave Similarities: both contain A,G,C |
|
name and identify the functions of the molecules involved in protein synthesis
|
tRNA-carries amino acids to the ribosme and adds them to the growing protein
rRNA- genetic messenger mRNA- copies the coded message fromm the DNA in the nucleus, and carries the message to the ribosome |
|
put the step of protein synthesis into a flow chart
|
1.DNA provides code to form messenger RNA
2. Messenger RNA attaches to ribosome 3. Transfer RNA attatches to Messenger RNA 4. Protein Production continues |
|
distinguish the difference between genes, chromosomes, and proteins
|
genes- control production of proteins in an organism's cell
chromosomes- composed mostly of DNA proteins- help determine the size, shape, color, and many other organism traits |
|
point mutation
|
example- THECATSAT to THEBATSAT
|
|
frame shift
|
example- THECATSAT to THECBATSAT
|
|
which mutation will have the biggest impact on the organism
|
frameshift protein
|
