Following the instructions below, you will make a candy model of a piece of DNA. This will help you see what DNA looks like! DNA uses four chemicals (adenine, guanine, thymine and cytosine) to encode the data to maintain and grow an organism.
Using the small symbols (squares, circles and stars) on the structures as guides, line up the bases, phosphates and sugars. Glue the appropriate pairs together to form nucleotides. Construct the right side of your DNA molecule by putting together in sequence a cytosine, thymine, guanine and adenine nucleotide.
15 lut 2021 · DNA Model – Cut and Paste Nucleotides. This digital modeling activity allows students to build a DNA model by dragging the individual parts into a completed diagram. Structures, such as deoxyribose, phosphate, and the nitrogen bases are shown.
Produced by the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute, this practical activity allows students to create an origami model of DNA, demonstrating its double helix structure. The activity provides a hands-on way of learning about the structure of DNA. Two templates are available as PDFs; a standard template with the...
Build a Paper Model of DNA. Fill in the names of the bases on the model shown to the right, or use the detailed model that shows all the atoms in each nucleotide (back side of paper). Cut out the model. Fold all long creases first.
7 lis 2019 · You can download six videos (bundled as a ZIP file) to see how to build the DNA model, or you can stream them from YouTube via the links below: Part 1: Preparing the Nucleotides. Part 2: Folding the Nucleotides. Part 3: Making a Strand of DNA. Part 4: Practicing Base-Pairing. Part 5: Building a Double Helix. Part 6: Expanding the Helix.
Have you ever made a candy DNA model? If you have not, then you must try this with your students! Students will use candy to build a DNA model, yes candy. This free download includes a post activity handout and a model key card. It is sure to be a hit in your classroom!
