1. Deoxyribonucleic Acid
-DNA = deoxyribonucleic acid; a type of nucleic acid
-the specific sequence of DNA is the genetic information (or instructions/blueprints) for that organism
-this polymer is made of monomers known as nucleotides

2. Deoxyribonucleic Acid
--a nucleotide is made of three subunits: a phosphoric acid group, a five-carbon pentose sugar, and one of four nitrogen bases (adenine, thymine, guanine, or cytosine)
-the sugar is a deoxyribose sugar, which means it is missing an oxygen

3. Deoxyribonucleic Acid
-DNA has a double helix structure composed of two sugar-phosphate backbones and the rungs are composed of nitrogen bases
-the two sides of DNA are held together by hydrogen bonds

4. Deoxyribonucleic Acid
-adenine (A) pairs with thymine (T)
-guanine (G) pairs with cytosine (C)
-A and G are purines
-T and C are pyrimidines
-the actual areas that contain the instructions for life are known specifically as genes

5. Create-A-DNA-T-Shirt
Directions:
Design artwork for a tee shirt representing DNA!
1. Front of Shirt: must have artwork showing DNA in whatever form you choose.
2. Back of Shirt: must have a 1 or 2 line cute or clever (but CLEAN) saying using any concept that pertains to DNA
3. 1 paragraph explaining how the artwork and saying demonstrate DNA must be written.
