Presentation Transcript


  1. DNA Foldable Directions: • Fold 3 pieces of paper, so you have 5 layered flaps • Write “DNA” on the top flap as a title

  2. On each flap write: • DNA Basics & Organization • DNA Structure & Function • DNA Replication • RNA Structure & Function • Comparing DNA & RNA

  3. 1. DNA Basics & Organization

  4. (Inside) On Top Half of 1st Flap write: 1. Make the following flow chart: Cell  Nucleus  Chromosome DNA  Gene 2. Glue in the following picture below it Segment of DNA

  5. (Inside) On Bottom Half of 1st Flap write: DNA stands for “Deoxyribonucleicacid” (type of organic molecule) DNA is the instructions for making proteins that carry out life functions

  6. 2. DNA Structure & Function

  7. (Inside) On Top Half of 2nd Flap write: Directions: • Write “DNA STRUCTURE” • Cut out panel and glue into flap • Color the following: • Green= Phospahte Group • Red= Sugar • Blue=Nitrogenous bases • Yellow=Nucleotide • Purple= Sugar-Phosphate backbone DNA is has a double helical shape!

  8. (Inside) On Top Bottom Half of 2nd Flap write: Directions: • Write “DNA FUNCTION” • Make the following table:

  9. 3. DNA Replication

  10. (Inside) On Top Half of 3rd Flap write: #1 Directions: • Cut out panel and glue into flap • Color the following in picture #1: • Green= Parent Strand • Yellow= Complementary Strand • Outline the following: in picture #2: • Red = Leading strand • Blue = Lagging strand #2

  11. (Inside) On Top Bottom Half of 3rd Flap write Leading Strand ONLY! 3. Elongation DNA protein polymerase reads template strand and continuously adds new nucleotides that are complementary to the parent strand • Write “Steps of DNA Replication” • Make the following flow chart: 1. DNA unwinds with help of protein helicase, this breaks weak hydrogen bonds between bases 2. The protein primase attached to the parent strand, this helps bind (attach) new nucleotides Lagging Strand ONLY! 5. DNA Termination 4. DNA primers are removed & DNA ligase adds sugars and phosphates in gaps made by fragments 3. DNA primase adds more primers, DNA is elongated in short segments (okazzki fragments) by DNA polymerase and then is 6. DNA repairs itself

  12. 4. RNA Structure & Function

  13. (Inside) On Top Half of 4th Flap write: Directions: • Write “RNA STRUCTURE” • Cut out pictures, glue into flap and label types of RNA rRNA mRNA tRNA

  14. (Inside) On Top Bottom Half of 4th Flap write: Directions: Write “RNA FUNCTION” Make the following table:

  15. 5. Comparing DNA & RNA

  16. (Inside) On Top Half of 5th Flap write: Directions: • Cut out panel and glue into flap

  17. (Inside) On Bottom Half of 5th Flap: • Directions: • 1. Draw & Complete the following Venn Diagram: DNA RNA
