Essential Questions

• Compare and contrast DNA vs. RNA

• Explain the function of the 3 types of RNA

• Explain the two parts of protein synthesis

Important Vocab

• Nucleus - called the "control center" of a cell. Holds all genetic information.

• Chromosome - the condensed form of DNA. Looks like an X. Just consists of DNA wrapped around proteins.

• Gene - a segment of DNA that codes for a specific trait.

• Nucleotide - makes up the "base pairs" that form the "steps" of the DNA ladder. Guanine, Cytosine, Adenine, Thymine (C-G, A-T) 

DNA

• DNA is "double-stranded" in the shape of a "double helix," which is like a twisted ladder.

• The rungs, or "steps," of the ladder are the nucleotides.

• ​In order to make a protein, cells must first make RNA from DNA

• DNA contains the genetic information needed to make all of our proteins, and that RNA is a messenger that carries this information to the ribosomes

Nucleotides

• Nucleotides consist of a phosphate, a sugar (Deoxyribose), and a nitrogenous base.

• Nucleotides are the monomers of DNA, which means it makes up DNA.

• Nucleotides are the "Code" of DNA.

Nucleotides

• The nucleotides are Adenine, Thymine, Guanine, and Cytosine. (A, T, G, C)

• Look at the picture to the right.

• A always pairs up with T. (APPLES go in the TREE)

• C always pairs up with G. (CARS go in the GARAGE)
