2
DNA
3
Chromosome Tightly coiled packaged bundle of DNA
held together by histone proteins
4
Deoxyribonucleic acid
Nucleic acids, phosphate sugars create a blueprint for genetic information (all the information to make you function)
5
What’s it made out of? (double stranded) 4 nucleic acid base pairs
Guanine=Cytosine Adenine=Thymine
6
codon 3 nucleotide segment that translates to 1 amino acid
(the help form genes to be expressed)
7
DNA does everything We preserve it by procreating with a mate.
So important we replicate it So important we replicate it Sadly only half of our own DNA passes on to offspring
8
DNA replication Benefits: Clone of our information Reason:
It’s time to replace and create a new cell in an organism
9
Replication steps DNA molecule separates (unwinds) between the strands
10
Proteins stabilize the strand for reconstruction
11
DNA polymerase attaches and begins to pair complementary nucleotides on the strand
12
How DNA Polymerase Copies DNA
Leading strand -DNA strand is 3-5 -Created forward like a train Lagging strand -DNA strand 5-3 -Created like sewing, in a slow back stitched pattern
