UNIT 4 ~ DNA REVIEW UNIT 4 ~ DNA REVIEW DNA: Deoxyribonucleic Acid Found: in the nucleus of Eukaryote cells RNA: Ribonucleic Acid Made: in the Nucleus and brings message to Ribosomes UNIT 4 ~ DNA REVIEW Shape: Double Helix Repeating nucleotides Nucleotide: 1 Base, 1 Sugar, & 1 Phosphate UNIT 4 ~ DNA REVIEW 1953: Who established the structure of DNA? James Watson & Francis Crick Rosalind Franklins work helped ^ UNIT 4 ~ DNA REVIEW Gene - a segment of ______ that codes for a protein, which in turn codes for a trait (skin tone, eye color, etc…) Example: TGCCAGTCA THE BASES The organic bases are Adenine (A) Thymine (T) Cytosine (C) Guanine (G) Nucleotides pair in a specific way - called the Base-Pair Rule T A G C 7 JOINED NUCLEOTIDES PO4 A molecule of DNA is formed by millions of nucleotides joined together in a long chain PO4 PO4 PO4 sugar-phosphate backbone + bases BONDING 2 PO4 PO4 adenine thymine PO4 PO4 cytosine guanine PO4 PO4 PO4 PO4 DNA replication is semi- _____________. That means that when it makes a copy, one half of the old strand is always kept in the new strand. This helps reduce the number of copy error 10 UNIT 4 ~ DNA REVIEW Mutations occur at some time during a person's life and are present only in certain cells, not in every cell in the body. This can occur if a mistake is made as DNA copies itself during cell division. OR can be caused by environmental factors such as ultraviolet radiation from the sun. RNA DNA remains in the _______________ but in order for it to get its instructions translated into proteins, it must send its message to the ribosomes, where proteins are made. The chemical used to carry this message is Messenger RNA RNA = ribonucleic acid. RNA is similar to DNA except: 1. has one strand instead of two strands. 2. has uracil instead of thymine 3. has ribose instead of deoxyribose mRNA has the job of taking the message from the DNA to the nucleus to the ribosomes. 12 UNIT 4 ~ DNA REVIEW Transcription: The code is read by copying stretches of _____into the related nucleic acid _____ Translation: Proteins are made from the message on the ______ UNIT 4 ~ DNA REVIEW REVIEW QUESTION #1 Which of the following describes the function of DNA?
