Understanding the Functions of Proteins and DNA Ingrid Waldron‚ Biology Department‚ University of Pennsylvania‚ 2012 These key concepts and activities are suggested as part of an introductory unit on biological molecules (or as an introduction to a unit on molecular biology). The overarching goal is to help students understand that proteins and DNA are not just abstract concepts in biology textbooks but rather crucial components of our bodies that affect familiar functions and characteristics

Associate Program Material DNA Worksheet Answer the following in at least 100 words: 1. Describe the structure of DNA. * * There has been a major effort in the history of science to figure out the structure of DNA. Having a double standard helix DNA has a uniform a diameter in its entire length. The helixes fit within a defined three dimensional space because they are both right handed. Polynucleotide chains are held together by the bases in the (center) hydrogen bonding

Associate Program Material DNA Worksheet Answer the following in at least 100 words: 1. Describe the structure of DNA. DNA really stands for Deoxyribonucleic acid. DNA is a right handed double helix. Nucleotides that mount together by phosphodiester bonds make up DNA. It also contains a spiral strand that is made of phosphate backbone and secure bases (Adenine‚ Guanine‚ Cytosine‚ Thymine). Cytosine and Thymine are Pyrimidines‚ while Adenine and Guanine are Purines.
