Modeling the Structure of DNA student handout. 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).
Modeling the Structure of DNA. OVERVIEW. In this activity, students build a paper model of DNA and use their model to explore key structural features of the DNA double helix.
7 lis 2019 · Through building and observing this model, students explore the basic structure of phosphodiester bonds, base pairs, the spatial relationships among the components of nucleotides in DNA, and the antiparallel nature of the double helix.
Origami DNA Blank Template. This hands-on activity allows you to create your own paper model of a DNA double helix. This activity explores the structure of DNA in a paper-based form. You can also use the blank version to explore the pairing rules of DNA, by colouring in each base pair using the pairing rules printout.
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...
Using this DNA model resource, students follow must the instructions to cut out the template and stick the pieces together to form a model of the double helix structure of DNA. Worksheets are provided to support them to evaluate how well the model represents the structure of DNA.
Students construct a paper model of DNA by cutting nucleotides from a pattern, coloring and then taping to a sheet. Worksheet includes questions on DNA structure.
