  1. Protein Synthesis

  2. Write down 5 “things” that you know about DNA

  3. What is a GENE? Instruction manual for our body They are the directions for building all the proteins that make our body function

  4. Where is a Gene? • Within DNA • The nitrogen bases spell out the instructions.

  5. What is a TRAIT? A trait is a genetically determined characteristic

  6. RNA Ribonucleic Acid Make up of Nucleotides Contains Phosphorus

  7. RNA Nucleotide A Phosphate Nitrogen Base C B Guanine Cytosine Ribose Adenine Uracil

  8. Types of RNA Messenger RNA Nickname: mRNA Made up of ONE strand of nucleotides

  9. mRNA Function Copy a message from a gene on DNA DNA mRNA

  10. Types of RNA Transfer RNA Nickname: tRNA Made up of ONE strand of nucleotides and a amino acid

  11. tRNA Function Carries amino acids to mRNA Amino Acids mRNA

  12. Types of RNA Ribosomal RNA Nickname: rRNA Made up of ONE strand of nucleotides mixed with the ribosome

  13. rRNA Function Forms peptide bonds between the amino acids rRNA Peptide Bond Amino acid Amino acid Amino acid Amino acid

  14. DNA versus RNA: # of Strands 2 strands 1 strand

  15. DNA versus RNA: Sugar Deoxyribose Ribose

  16. DNA versus RNA: Bonds with Adenine DNA RNA Adenine Thymine Adenine Uracil
