9 mar 2010 · This document discusses DNA and genetics. It begins by describing the basic components and structure of DNA, including nucleotides, bases, and the double helix formation. It then explains how DNA stores and transmits genetic information through transcription and translation into RNA and proteins.
Instructions. Colour the individual structures on the worksheet as follows: adenine = red guanine = blue phosphate = brown. thymine = green cytosine = yellow deoxyribose = purple. Cut out each structure. Using the small symbols (squares, circles and stars) on the structures as guides, line up the bases, phosphates and sugars.
Bring the structure of DNA to life for your middle school science students with this resource that would make Watson, Crick AND Franklin proud. In this lesson, students learn the history of DNA discovery, demonstrate how nucleic acids pair with one another, and observe DNA with the naked eye.
2 mar 2012 · This document discusses the structure, properties, and functions of DNA. It describes DNA as a polymer composed of deoxyribonucleotides that carries the genetic information found in chromosomes, mitochondria, and chloroplasts.
DNA is a polymer of nucleotide monomers, each consisting of a phosphate, a deoxyribose sugar, and one of four nitrogenous bases: adenine (A), thymine (T), guanine (G), or cytosine (C). The nucleotides of DNA are arranged into a double helix based on the rules of base complementarity.
This EDITABLE 4 page worksheet asks students to review basic concepts in DNA structure, function, and replication. It includes identifying molecules, multiple choice, matching, fill-in-the-blank, and free response questions.
INTRODUCTION. In this activity, you will build your own model to understand how DNA works. DNA is a simple molecule made up of four types of chemical building blocks called nucleotides: adenine (A), thymine (T), cytosine (C), and guanine (G).
