1) Bell Ringer: Finish replicating this strand of DNA AATCGATCG
2) Review
- What does DNA stand for? Deoxyribonucleic acid
- Where is DNA found in a cell? Nucleushttps://docs.google.com/document/d/1Rsr-qaB1m8sJvglEGdVy1Om3-I1o8yvxZrftt6GelYw/edit
- What does DNA do? contains instruction for building proteins
- *Only 2% of our DNA contains protein coding genes. Scientists are currently working to find out what the other 98% is for-it used to be called "junk DNA".
- * We have about 23,000 protein coding genes.
- What is the monomer of DNA? nucleotides
- Name the three parts of a nucleotide: sugar, phosphate group, and nitrogen containing base
- Name the 4 bases found in DNA: adenine, guanine, cytosine, thymine
- How do they pair up? Adenine + Thymine and cytosine + guanine
- Which bases are the 2 ringed purines? adenine and guanine
- Which bases are the 1 ringed pyrimidines? cytosine and thymine
- What is the process called when DNA is copied? replication
- What is the enzyme that "unzips" the DNA? helicase
- What is the enzyme that joins the nucleotides? DNA polymerase
3) Next we took the DNA quiz
4) Then we took notes on transcription and translation

5) Last of all we worked on this worksheet that compares DNA and RNA.
