1 Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic Cells: What do all cells have in common?
(DNA) (DNA) Cytosol Plasma membrane Cytosol Ribosomes Cytosol Chromosomes made of DNA A prokaryotic cell

2 DNA DNA, deoxyribonucleic acid

3 DNA is a Nucleic Acid Nucleic acids are information storage molecules.
They provide the directions for building proteins. Transcription Translation

4 Two strands of DNA join together to form a double helix.

5 Nucleotide monomers are linked into long chains.
These chains are called polynucleotides, or DNA strands. A sugar-phosphate backbone joins them together.

6 Nucleic acids are polymers of nucleotides.

7 Two strands of DNA join together to form a double helix.
Base pairing: A-T G-C
