When does DNA cell replication occur?When does DNA cell replication occur?
Before a cell divides Mitosis & MeiosisMitosis & Meiosis
When DNA replicates, it results in When DNA replicates, it results in __________ of the number of __________ of the number of chromosomes in a cell?chromosomes in a cell?
DNA DEOXYRIBONUCLEIC ACID
Is the blueprint of life (has the instructions for making an organism) established by James Watson and Francis Crick -codes for your genes -shape of a double helix -made of repeating subunits called nucleotides Nucleotide - consists of a sugar, phosphate and a base
Nitrogenous Bases
Adenine, Thymine, , Guanine, Cytosine or A, T, G, C
Nucleotides pair in a specific way
- called the Base-Pair Rule Adenine pairs to ThymineGuainine pairs to Cytosine
To make a copy of any thing, you To make a copy of any thing, you need an original or template.need an original or template.
DNA has the template build in.DNA has the template build in. Replication begins when the double Replication begins when the double

What are Genes?What are Genes?
What is The Genetic Code?What is The Genetic Code?
It is three adjacent nucleotides (“letters”) in It is three adjacent nucleotides (“letters”) in mRNA that specify an amino acid in a mRNA that specify an amino acid in a polypeptide, (_________) molecule.polypeptide, (_________) molecule.
Genes are areas on the DNA molecule Genes are areas on the DNA molecule that code for the synthesis of specific that code for the synthesis of specific proteins.proteins.
-Proteins determine the traits in organisms so Proteins determine the traits in organisms so
therefore, genes determine the specific traits of therefore, genes determine the specific traits of
an organism.an organism.
Protein SynthesisProtein Synthesis
Is a process whereby DNA encodes for the Is a process whereby DNA encodes for the production of amino acids and proteins.production of amino acids and proteins.
This process can be divided into two parts:This process can be divided into two parts:1. Transcription 1. Transcription 2. Translation2. Translation
VocabularyVocabularyTranscription - Synthesis of mRNA Transcription - Synthesis of mRNA Translation - Synthesis of polypeptide from amino acids. Translation - Synthesis of polypeptide from amino acids. Codon - Base triplet on mRNA. Codon - Base triplet on mRNA. Anticodon - Complementary triplet on tRNA. Anticodon - Complementary triplet on tRNA. Polypeptide - ______ moleculePolypeptide - ______ molecule
DNA is too large to leave the DNA is too large to leave the Nucleus, soNucleus, so
how does the information (genetic how does the information (genetic codes) within the DNA molecule get codes) within the DNA molecule get to the ribosome’s where proteins are to the ribosome’s where proteins are synthesized?synthesized?
An intermediate molecule is needed.An intermediate molecule is needed.

RNA is that molecule.RNA is that molecule.
It is single stranded and It is single stranded and thus is smaller than thus is smaller than DNA & able to leave the DNA & able to leave the nucleus through the nucleus through the nuclear pores and carry nuclear pores and carry the codes to the the codes to the ribosomeribosome Uracil (U)* instead of Thymine (T)Uracil (U)* instead of Thymine (T)

One strand of the DNA double helix is used One strand of the DNA double helix is used as a template by the RNA polymerase to as a template by the RNA polymerase to synthesize a messenger RNA (mRNA). synthesize a messenger RNA (mRNA).
The mRNA then migrates from the nucleus The mRNA then migrates from the nucleus to the ribosome.to the ribosome.
The DNA molecule unzips /opens up on one side only and the base sequence is transcribed into a complementary sequence of bases transcribed into a complementary sequence of bases forming a mRNA molecule. forming a mRNA molecule.
