CARBON, HYDROGEN, AND OXYGEN
PRODUCES SUGAR WHEN FOOD IS MADE IN PLANTS
FOUND IN CELLULOSE IN CELL WALLS
ALSO FOUND IN CELL MEMBRANES.

10. LIPIDS FATS, OILS, AND WAXES ARE LIPIDS ENERGY-RICH ORGANIC COMPOUND
MADE OF:
CARBON, HYDROGEN, AND OXYGEN
STORE ENERGY FOR THE CELL FOR LATER USE
CELL MEMBRANE IS MADE MOSTLY OF LIPIDS

11. PROTEINS LARGE ORGANIC MOLECULES MADE OF: STRUCTURE:
CARBON, HYDROGEN, OXYGEN, NITROGEN AND SOME CASES SULFUR
FOODS ARE HIGH IN PROTEINS ARE:
MEAT, EGGS, FISH, NUTS, AND BEANS
STRUCTURE:
MADE OF AMINO ACIDS
A CHANGE IN THE TYPE OR ORDER OF AMINO ACID CAN RESULT IN A DIFFERENT PROTEIN

12. PROTEINS CONT…. FUNCTION:
MUCH OF THE STRUCTURE OF A CELL IS MADE UP OF PROTEINS.
PROTEINS CALLED ENZYMES PERFORM IMPORTANT FUNCTIONS IN THE CHEMICAL REACTIONS THAT TAKE PLACE IN CELLS
ENZYME- A TYPE OF PROTEIN THAT SPEED UP A CHEMICAL REACTION IN A LIVING THING
WITHOUT ENZYMES, MANY CHEMICAL REACTIONS THAT ARE NECESSARY FOR LIFE WOULD TAKE TOO LONG OR NEVER HAPPEN AT ALL.

13. NUCLEIC ACIDS
VERY LONG ORGANIC MOLECULES MADE OF CARBON, OXYGEN, HYDROGEN, NITROGEN, AND PHOSPHORUS.
CONTAIN THE INSTRUCTIONS THAT CELLS NEED TO CARRY OUT ALL THE FUNCTIONS OF LIFE.
TWO TYPES OF NUCLEIC ACIDS:
DNA-DEOXYRIBONUCLEIC ACID
RNA- RIBONUCLEIC ACID

14. DNA-DEOXYRIBONUCLEIC ACID
THE GENETIC MATERIAL THAT CARRIES INFORMATION ABOUT AN ORGANISM
INFORMATION IN DNA DIRECTS ALL THE CELL’S DAILY FUNCTIONS
MOST DNA IN A CELL IS FOUND IN CHROMATIN IN THE NUCLEUS

15. RNA-RIBONUCLEIC ACID PLAYS IMPORTANT ROLE IN PRODUCTION OF PROTEINS
IS FOUND IN CYTOPLASM AS WELL AS IN THE NUCLEUS

HOW IS RNA RELATED TO THE STRUCTURE OF AN ORGANISM?

17. STRUCTURE AND REPLICATION OF DNA
JAMES WATSON AND FRANCIS CRICK
STRUCTURE OF DNA
FUNCTION OF DNA

18. STRUCTURE OF DNA
LOOKS LIKE A TWISTED LADDER OR SPIRAL STAIR CASE, called a double helix
Sides are made of sugar & phosphate molecules
Rungs are made of nitrogen bases

19. STRUCTURE OF DNA CONT… A ----- T C -----G RUNGS: BASE:
MADE OF A PAIR OF MOLECULES CALLED NITROGEN BASES.
HAS 4 KINDS OF NITROGEN BASES:
ADENINE - A
THYMINE- T
GUANINE - G
CYTOSINE - C
BASE:
THE BASE ON ONE SIDE OF THE LADDER PAIRS WITH THE BASE ON THE OTHER SIDE.
Adenine always pairs with Thymine
Cytosine always pairs with Guanine
A T
C -----G

21. Function of DNA PASSES GENETIC MATERIAL FROM PARENT TO OFFSPRING
It’s the vehicle for transporting information from one place to another.

22. IMPORTANT!!!! During mitosis, DNA must be copied exactly!
This process is called replication.

23. THE REPLICATION PROCESS
HAPPENS IN INTERPHASE
END OF INTERPHASE IT COPIES ITSSELF:
DNA uncoils or unzips. (base pairs pull apart)
Free floating nitrogen bases pair with each half of the unzipped based pairs.
Two new strands of DNA are formed that are identical to the original strand.

25. Pair the complementary base pairs:G

27. RNA Structure: Like a ladder with its rungs sawed in half
Nitrogen bases:
Cytosine
Guanine
Adenine
Uracil (instead of thymine)

28. RNA Function Main function is to carry out protein synthesis
the process of making proteins.
the cell uses information from the gene on a chromosome to produce a specific protein.

29. RNA
Carries the codes for making proteins from the nucleus to the ribosomes
DNA is in the nucleus and RNA is the messenger that carries the instructions to the ribosomes in the cytoplasm of the cell.
Ribose sugar
Missing double oxygen bond (single stranded)

30. TYPES OF RNA
Messenger (MRNA) – copies the coded message from the nucleus and carries it to the ribosome
Since proteins are made of amino acids, Transfer (TRNA) carries the correct amino acids to the ribosome to make the protein.

31. Translating the Code Process of protein synthesis:
1. DNA Molecule unzips. One strand directs the production of a strand messenger RNA.
2. The messenger RNA leaves the nucleus and enters the cytoplasm. MRNA attaches to a Ribosome. On the ribosome the MRNA provides the code for the protein molecule that will form. During PS the ribosome moves along the MRNA strand.
3. Molecule's of TRNA attach to the MRNA. The base on TRNA reads the message by pairing up three-letter codes to bases on the MNA. Molecule of TRNA carries specific Amino acids. The acids link in a chain. The order of amino acids in the chain is determined by the order of the three-letter codes on MRNA.
4. The protein molecule grows longer as each transfer RNA molecule puts the amino acid it is carrying along the growing protein chain. One the acid is added to the protein chain, the TRNA is released into the cytoplasm and can pick up another amino acid. Each TRNA always picks up the same kind of Amino acid.

32. In Action

33. Which could be an RNA Strand? Create the corresponding RNA strand.

34. Watson and Crick
The first DNA model was made by James Watson and Francis Crick.

35. Chromosomes:
Structures in a cell’s nucleus that contain hereditary material
Human body cells have 23 pairs.
Human sex cells have 23 unpaired.

36. Gene:
Section of a DNA molecule whose sequence of building blocks specifies the sequence of amino acids in a particular protein.
The activity of the protein imparts the phenotype.

38. DNA VS. RNA DNA- DOUBLE HELIX RNA- SINGLE STRANDED
