DNA Replication
4
DNA = Deoxyribo nucleic acid
DNA Notes DNA = Deoxyribo nucleic acid Made up of repeating units called nucleotides. A nucleotide consist of ( sugar (deoxyribose), phosphates and nitrogeneous bases
5
Cell division and DNA replication
Cells divide Growth, Repair, Replacement Before cells divide they have to double cell structures, organelles and their genetic information
6
Notes: Structure was discovered in 1953 by James Watson and Francis Crick
7
DNA replication
8
DNA Replication Steps DNA replication 1. DNA unwinding
2. Unzipping (hydrogen bonds break) 3. New strands made– free floating nucleotides form to build new strand Note: DNA replication is said to be Semi-conservative because: One strand is the original (conserved) One strand is freshly assembled (semi-half) This shows dna replication animation You will talk about each step as you click play

DNA replication steps unzipping DNA New nucleotides assembled

DNA replication This shows dna replication animation You will talk about each step as you click play
12
Let’s build our own DNA model and simulate DNA replication.
At this website, each student will replicate DNA. This will support the paper cut out replication activity
13
DNA replication DNA Double helix game
Reenforcement purpose. Extra activity if time permits If you cannot link directly, go to at search write dna double helix game.
14
Replication Lab Make the other side to make a double helix
Pick A T C G C T (lay them on the table) Make the other side to make a double helix Now lets replicate: 3. UNWIND your DNA get teacher’s approval 4. UNZIP your DNA Build new strands Put the labels in the correct places ( DNA polymerase, new strand, old strand)
15
Lab 2 Create your own DNA with 6 rungs or steps REPLICATE
Show your teacher the end product with the lables in the correct places Complete the given worksheet Turn in your work as a group, clean up and go back to your seat in front
