Objective
Genetics
4.
5.
a.
Students know the general pathway by which ribosomes synthesize proteins, using tRNAs to
translate genetic information in mRNA.
3.
b.
Students know how to apply the genetic coding rules to predict the sequence of amino acids
from a sequence of codons in RNA.
4.
5.
c.
Students know how mutations in the DNA sequence of a gene may or may not affect the
expression of the gene or the sequence of amino acids in an encoded protein.
6.


Analyze the structure o DNA
Determine how the structure of DNA enables it to
reproduce.
Relate the concept of the gene to the sequences of
nucleotides in DNA
Sequence the steps involving protein synthesis
Categorize the different kinds of mutations that can
occur in DNA
Compare the effects of different kinds of mutations
on cells and organisms.
The genetic composition of cells can be altered by incorporation of exogenous DNA into the cells. As a
basis for understanding this concept:
a.
Students know the general structures and functions of DNA, RNA, and protein.
b.
Students know how to apply base-pairing rules to explain precise copying of DNA during semi
conservative replication and transcription of information from DNA into mRNA.

Genes are a set of instructions encoded in the DNA sequence of each organism that specify the sequence
of amino acids in proteins characteristic of that organism. As a basis for understanding this concept:
