1
DNA Structure How the structure of DNA was discovered and how it relates to its function of REPLICATION
2
How did we determine DNA’s structure? Will our model change?
4
Vocabulary O Be able to identify a nucleotide O Identify the molecules that make up rungs and sides of the double helix. O Explain the term antiparallel O Identify the 3’ and 5’ ends O Identify the two functions of DNA and how its structure relates.
5
How did experimental evidence determine the structure and function of DNA? O 5 Famouns DNA Experiments: O Griffith/Avery O Hershey/Chase O Chargaff O Watson/Crick/Franklin O Messelson/Stahl O Identify their experimental design and analysis! O Hypothesis…Methods…Data Analysis…Conclusion!

DNA Replication…Animation Preview O DNA replication is a highly organized biological process. O In what sequence does the process occur? O What enzymes and molecules are involved in the process? O Distinguish between the leading and lagging strand? O Why must proofreading be an essential component of DNA replication?
