Associate Program Material DNA Worksheet Answer the following in at least 100 words: 1. Describe the structure of DNA. DNA is a polymer‚ which is a chemical compound or a mixture of compounds consisting of repeating structural units. These repeating structures are created through polymerization. The monomer‚ meaning one part‚ units of DNA are nucleotides. Each nucleotide consists of a five carbon sugar‚ also known as deoxyribose‚ and nitrogen containing base attached to the sugar

DNA Packaging: Nucleosomes and Chromatin By: Anthony T. Annunziato‚ Ph.D. (Biology Department‚ Boston College) © 2008 Nature Education Citation: Annunziato‚ A. (2008) DNA packaging: Nucleosomes and chromatin. Nature Education 1(1) Each of us has enough DNA to reach from here to the sun and back‚ more than 300 times. How is all of that DNA packaged so tightly into chromosomes and squeezed into a tiny nucleus? The haploid human genome contains approximately 3 billion base pairs of DNA packaged

DNA fingerprinting is a way of identifying a specific individual‚ rather than simply identifying a species or some particular trait. It is also known as genetic fingerprinting or DNA profiling. As a technology‚ it has been around since at least 1985‚ when it was announced by its inventor‚ Sir Alec Jeffreys. DNA fingerprinting is currently used both for identifying paternity or maternity and for identifying criminals or victims. There is discussion of using DNA fingerprinting as a sort of personal

For over a decade‚ there has been a controversial issue dealing with building a national DNA database. This issue has been brought up over the discussion of the actual database and what kinds of effects will come out of it‚ if it actually happens to go through. Some people think the database will be a force in crime fighting. Others think it is a violation of civil liberties. In the early 1900s‚ “fingerprinting‚” a new crime-fighting database‚ was developed. With the exception of identical

chromosomes are very long compact coils of DNA (Deoxyribonucleic Acid) that store all the information that the body inbeds such as how one looks and functions. This paper will first describe the structure of DNA; second discuss how the structure of DNA allows it to serve as the basis for inheritance‚ third examine how meiosis allows DNA to be divided into gametes and finally‚ describe how this relates to Gregor Mendel’s patterns of inheritance. The structure of DNA DNA is a thread formed by two strands

ions -DNA replication minimizes errors such as the DNA that is duplicated but changes in the DNA do occur‚ producing mutations. Although most mutations are either neutral or harmful they are also the raw material for evolution. Such mutations from alleles‚ alternate forms of a given gene that may produce differences in structure or function such as black‚ brown or blond hair in humans‚ or different mating calls in frogs. Stages of Mitosis~ 1)Parent cell. 2)Chromosomes make identical copies

DNA Replication DNA replication is a biological process that occurs in all living organisms and copies their DNA. The initiation of DNA replication starts with two steps. First an initiator protein unwinds a short stretch of the DNA double helix. Then a protein called helicase attaches to and breaks apart the hydrogen bonds between the bases on the DNA strands‚ pulling apart the two strands. DNA replication starts when one double-stranded DNA molecule produces two identical copies of the molecule
