Day # Common Core/Quality Core Standard (s)
C. Delving Into Heredity by Investigating How Genetic Structures and Processes Provide the
Mechanism for Continuity and Variety Among Organisms
1. Genetics
a. Describe the basic structure and function of DNA, mRNA, tRNA, amino acids, polypeptides, and proteins (e.g.,
replication, transcription, and translation)
b. Describe the experiments of major scientists in determining both the structure of DNA and the central dogma
c. Use mRNA codon charts to determine amino acid sequences of example polypeptides
d. Use mRNA codon charts to determine the effects of different types of mutations on amino acid sequence and
protein structure (e.g., sickle cell anemia resulting from base substitution mutation)
e. Describe how gene expression is regulated in organisms such that specific proteins are synthesized only when
they are needed by the cell (e.g., allowing cell specialization)
n. Complete a major project relating to recombinant DNA, cloning, or stem cell research
