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.
Paper Nucleic Acid Models for Hands-on Education. Download templates for a set of paper models that can be cut from paper or cardstock and used for demonstrations of the fundamentals of DNA structure, DNA replication, and RNA translation.
DNA Paper Model. What is DNA? DNA is perfect for the storage and readout of genetic information. This information is stored in the sequence of Adenine, Thymine, Guanine, and Cytosine - also called A, T, G, and C. Each helix has a backbone made of alternating deoxyribose and phosphate groups.
In this activity, students build a paper model of DNA and use their model to explore key structural features of the DNA double helix. This activity can be used to complement the short film The Double Helix, which examines some of the evidence that James Watson and Francis Crick used to determine the double-helical structure of DNA. KEY CONCEPTS.
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.
26 wrz 2023 · DNA Origami. Step-by-step instructions and printable folding paper included in the downloadable document. You may recognize DNA as one of the most well-known biological structures.
7 lis 2019 · In this activity, students build a paper model of DNA and use their model to explore key structural features of the DNA double helix. This activity can be used to complement the short film The Double Helix. Students use paper nucleotides printed on card stock to build a single-stranded DNA sequence assigned by their instructor.
