DNA Replication  in Google Classroom

DNA Replication

Standard: Heredity and Reproduction -
A. DNA stores and transmits genetic information. Genes are sets of instructions encoded in the structure of DNA.

B. Genetic information is passed from generation to generation by DNA in all organisms and accounts for similarities in related individuals.

C. Manipulation of DNA in organisms has led to commercial production of biological molecules on a large scale and genetically modified organisms.

D. Reproduction is characteristic of living things and is essential for the survival of species.

Learning Target:
Students will be able to identify and recognized the process of DNA replication, why it happens, and where it happens.

Due:

Edpuzzle - DNA & RNA in Google Classroom

Edpuzzle - DNA & RNA

HS-LS3.A.2
Each chromosome consists of a single very long DNA molecule, and each gene on the chromosome is a particular segment of that DNA. The instructions for forming species’ characteristics are carried in DNA. All cells in an organism have the same genetic content, but the genes used (expressed) by the cell may be regulated in different ways. Not all DNA codes for a protein; some segments of DNA are involved in regulatory or structural functions, and some have no as-yet known function.
HS-LS1.A.3
All cells contain genetic information in the form of DNA molecules. Genes are regions in the DNA that contain the instructions that code for the formation of proteins, which carry out most of the work of cells.

Learning Targets
Students will be able to know what are the major differences between RNA and DNA.
What is DNA, How does it work?
What are the building blocks of life?
What are the four kinds of molecules/bases. How are they paired?

Introduction to Genetics/Heredity in Google Classroom

Introduction to Genetics/Heredity

Key Idea 2:
Organisms inherit genetic information in a variety of ways that result in continuity of structure and function
between parents and offspring.

Explain why kids look like their parents
How DNA, Nucleus, Chromosomes, genes related.
2.1c Hereditary information is contained in genes, located in the chromosomes of each
cell. An inherited trait of an individual can be determined by one or by many genes, and
a single gene can influence more than one trait. A human cell contains many thousands
of different genes in its nucleus.
2.1d In asexually reproducing organisms, all the genes come from a single parent.
Asexually produced offspring are normally genetically identical to the parent.
2.1e In sexually reproducing organisms, the new individual receives half of the genetic
information from its mother (via the egg) and half from its father (via the sperm). Sexually
produced offspring often resemble, but are not identical to, either of their parents.
