  2. What does DNA stand for? Deoxyribonucleic Acid

  3. What is this shape called? • Double Helix!! • Watson & Crick

  4. What are the small pieces that make up DNA? • Nucleotides= Nitrogen Base Phosphate Sugar

  5. Where is the nucleotide in this picture?

  6. What is the point of the ATTGCAAA letters? It’s Morse Code!

  7. What is the DNA Morse code saying? • How to Make You! • Everything in you!

  8. What do the letters stand for? Different Nitrogen bases

  9. What are they? • Adenine • Cytosine • Guanine • Thymine

  10. Which bases pair up? A C T G

  11. Section 1 Check Which of the following is NOT a component of DNA? A. simple sugars B. phosphate groups C. nitrogenous bases D. proteins The answer is D.

  13. What is the process called, by which new DNA is made?

  14. Making New DNA! • DNA Replication= process of making new DNA • Makes 2 strands • CRAZY!

  15. During which phase of the cell cycle would this happen?

  16. Let’s see if we can replicate!!

  17. Video

  18. ClosureWhen does your body need to make new DNA? Give a specific occasion.

  19. Recipe Read in Codons • Codon = group of 3 bases • Start = AUG
