1. MT 14, The Blueprint of Life
Monday
TOPIC:
MY GOAL:
DID YOU KNOW
I will… demonstrate my knowledge of DNA & find out how DNA Replicates
Only the function of a few % of the DNA is known  rest has been believed to be useless garbage, called "Junk DNA”
Now it seems as if this DNA is not "junk" at all  it helps regulate other genes  This means that the "non-coding DNA" influences the behavior of the "coding DNA"
The knowledge between the two is very incomplete!
Junk?

2. DNA Double Helix A T C G T T Nucleotides G C DNA
The different combinations of the 4 chemicals, A-T, C-G, gives us our traits/characteristics like blonde hair, long toes, and even pink petals in a flower!
1. So if organisms are more closely related will their SEQUENCE of nucleotides be more ALIKE OR more DiFFeREnt ?
2. Soooo, if organisms are NOT similar, will their nucleotide SEQUENCES be more ALIKE OR more DiFFeREnt ?
3. What do the white circles represent?
4. What do the nucleotides make up?
A T P S
C G
T T
G C P P P
Nucleotides P
DNA 2

3. It is the SEQUENCE of NUCLEOTIDES that determines traits of all living things!
Maybe this SEQUENCE gives you a small nose
Maybe this SEQUENCE tells your body to have the right # of blood vessels
Maybe this SEQUENCE is junk DNA …Non-Coding DNA 3

4. Lastly… A gene is a piece of a Xsome which is made up of ---.
The main purpose of DNA is to
DNA is made up of smaller subunits called ---
DNA is found in the of the cell.
Do all cells have DNA?
The shape of the DNA molecule is like
DNA actually directs the ribosomes to make ----.
Proteins are made up of smaller subunits called ----.

5. MiniSummative #1 MT 14, DNA
You need your own answer sheet # from 1-10 w/o skipping lines
Read carefully  Understand what is being asked
Double-Check your work
Keep eyes on your own paper
Do not talk!
Turn in quiz paper
BEGIN THE NOTES: Packet page 9, ISN page

6. YOUR JOB TODAY
COMPLETE IN CLASS TODAY, the ReplicationReplication Notes!
Formative Performance Check Grade: 2, 1, or 0
These notes will NOT be graded beyond today!
This semester, you must understand that a deadline actually means something!

7. Video Clip DNA Replication DNA Replication 11/2 min. 11/2 min.

8. Steps to DNA REPLICATION!
Takes place in the NUCLEUS of the cell….. A C T G

3. Results in 2 identical DNA mol. – 1 for each daughter cell
1. ENZYME Helicase unzips due to enzyme
2. Extra Free Nucleotides move in to pair with matching 1/2 8

9. This is why Replication MUST take place
Mitosis is when your cells divide so we can grow & develop  it is basically ONE cell splitting into TWO & those 2 splitting into 4 & those 4 into 8 to 16 to 32 and on and on and on  That is how your body MAKES MORE CELLS!
In this ex. of Mitosis, you start w/ 4 strands of Xsomes in the parent cell & you have to end w/ 4 strands…
If the cell splits BEFORE replication, you would end up w/ 2 cells w/ only 2 strands of Xsomes
So now we find out the 3 steps involved in DNA REPLICATION
