Unit 2 Target Page
ELT : Understand the information coded within the DNA molecule as it relates to the
production of duplicate DNA molecules and the synthesis of proteins.
OBJECTIVE A: Identify and explain the structure of DNA including the genetic code contained within a DNA
molecule and use a template DNA strand to produce a complimentary DNA strand (replication)
