Presentation Transcript

  1. RNA • Ribonucleic Acid • R- Ribo • N- Nucleic • A- Acid

  2. RNA- Structure • Nucleotide • The monomer of RNA • Consists of 3 parts

  3. Nucleotide Part 1 • 5 carbon sugar • Ribose

  4. Nucleotide Part 2 • Phosphate group

  5. Nucleotide Part 3 • Nitrogenous bases- 4 • Purines • Adenine (A) • Guanine (G)

  6. Nucleotide Part 3 • Nitrogenous bases • Pyrimidines • Uracil (U) (replaces T of DNA) • Cytosine (C)

  7. Structure • Nucleotides form a single strand

  8. Types of RNA (p 205) • mRNA- messenger RNA • Copies and carries the code/message from DNA to the ribosome in a cell • Contains a codon (3 letter sequence)

  9. Types of RNA (p 205) • tRNA- transfer RNA • Picks up and carries the amino acids from the cytoplasm to the ribosome • Contains an anticodon (3 letter sequence matching a codon)

  10. Types of RNA (p 205) • rRNA • ribosomal RNA • Makes up most of ribosome

  11. Comparison of DNA & RNA (p 205) • 5 carbon sugar • DNA- deoxyribose • RNA- ribose

  12. Comparison of DNA & RNA (p 205) • # of strands • DNA- double strand • RNA- single strand

  13. Comparison of DNA & RNA (p 205) • Nitrogenous bases • DNA- A-T, C-G • RNA- A-U, C-G

  14. Comparison of DNA & RNA (p 205) • Types- • DNA • RNA • m- messenger • t- transfer • r- ribosomal

  15. Comparison of DNA & RNA (p 205) • Location • DNA- nucleus • RNA- nucleus, cytoplasm

  16. Protein Synthesis & Words • Obtain a list of words. • Put together some sentences using the list of words. Make your sentences at least 8 words long.
