________________________ Student Exploration: Building DNA Vocabulary: double helix‚ DNA‚ enzyme‚ lagging strand‚ leading strand‚ mutation‚ nitrogenous base‚ nucleoside‚ nucleotide‚ replication Prior Knowledge Questions (Do these BEFORE using the Gizmo.) DNA is an incredible molecule that forms the basis of life on Earth. DNA molecules contain instructions for building every living organism on Earth‚ from the tiniest bacterium to a massive blue whale. DNA also has the ability to replicate‚ or make

errors in DNA or from the harming impacts of mutagens‚ for example‚ chemicals and radiation‚ which respond with DNA and change the structures of individual nucleotides. All cells possess DNA-repair enzymes that attempt to minimize the number of mutations that occur. These enzymes work in two ways. Some are pre-replicative and look the DNA for nucleotides with irregular structures‚ these being replaced before replication happens; others are post-replicative and check recently synthesized DNA for mistakes

the 19th century with the introduction of forensic science. Forensic science was a new way to solve crimes with DNA evidence to get the correct criminal rightfully punished. In this paper I will go over how forensic science evidence developed over time‚ how the advancement of DNA made things easier in the courtroom‚ and finally what the projected future is for forensic science and DNA evidence. There is one question that I want answered at the end of this paper‚ and that is how does forensic science

Introduction A sample of DNA found in a crime scene was provided along with five suspects. Their DNA was then processed using restriction enzymes and Agarose Gel Electrophoresis. The objective of this lab was to match a criminals DNA to a crime scene using restriction enzymes EcoRI and Pstl with Agarose gel electrophoresis. Restriction enzymes cut DNA at a specific base pair site recognized by the enzyme‚ which then turns one single strand of DNA into many fragmented strands of DNA. EcoRI recognizes

Teacher Guide: DNA Fingerprint Analysis Learning Objectives Students will … Compare the DNA fingerprints of several individuals. Identify individuals that could be identical twins. Use DNA fingerprints to identify codons that control certain traits. Predict an individual’s phenotype using the individual’s DNA fingerprint. Vocabulary codon‚ DNA‚ DNA fingerprint‚ genotype‚ identical twins‚ nitrogenous base‚ phenotype‚ trait Lesson Overview With the exception of identical twins‚ no two organisms
