Nucleic Acid- A complex organic substance present in living cells, mainly in DNA and RNA.
Base Pairing- When two bases of a DNA strand pair to create a full set/strand of DNA.
DNA Polymerase- A member of a family of enzymes that catalyze the synthesis of DNA molecules.
DNA Replication- The biological process of producing two identical replicas of DNA from its original DNA molecule.
Template Strand- The DNA sequence that can duplicate itself during mRNA synthesis.
Replication Fork- The structure that forms within the long helical DNA during DNA replication.
Hydrogen Bond- A weak bond between two molecules resulting from an electrostatic attraction  between a proton in one molecule and an atom in another.
Prokaryotic DNA Replication- The process by which a prokaryote duplicates its DNA into another copy that is passed onto the daughter cells.
Eukaryotic DNA Replication- A conserved mechanism that restricts DNA replication to once per cell cycle. ]]> 2022-05-16 12:47:17 UTC https://padlet.com/2024bayuse/t7dy33l53jl46mgc/wish/2185639131 2024bayuse https://padlet.com/2024bayuse/t7dy33l53jl46mgc/wish/2185712208 - The three main components of a nucleotide of DNA in a diagram are the nitrogen base, the phosphate group, and the 5-carbon sugar.
- When two strands of DNA run "antiparallel", it means that it runs opposite directions from each other.
- The differences between DNA and RNA are that RNA contains the sugar ribose, while DNA contains deoxyribose. ]]> 2022-05-16 13:29:49 UTC https://padlet.com/2024bayuse/t7dy33l53jl46mgc/wish/2185712208 2024bayuse https://padlet.com/2024bayuse/t7dy33l53jl46mgc/wish/2185716522 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zwibgNGe4aY ]]> 2022-05-16 13:32:01 UTC https://padlet.com/2024bayuse/t7dy33l53jl46mgc/wish/2185716522 2024bayuse https://padlet.com/2024bayuse/t7dy33l53jl46mgc/wish/2185720216 2022-05-16 13:34:10 UTC https://padlet.com/2024bayuse/t7dy33l53jl46mgc/wish/2185720216 2024bayuse https://padlet.com/2024bayuse/t7dy33l53jl46mgc/wish/2185721048 2022-05-16 13:34:41 UTC https://padlet.com/2024bayuse/t7dy33l53jl46mgc/wish/2185721048 2024bayuse https://padlet.com/2024bayuse/t7dy33l53jl46mgc/wish/2185721626 2022-05-16 13:35:01 UTC https://padlet.com/2024bayuse/t7dy33l53jl46mgc/wish/2185721626 2024bayuse https://padlet.com/2024bayuse/t7dy33l53jl46mgc/wish/2185722356 2022-05-16 13:35:27 UTC https://padlet.com/2024bayuse/t7dy33l53jl46mgc/wish/2185722356 2024bayuse https://padlet.com/2024bayuse/t7dy33l53jl46mgc/wish/2185723597 2022-05-16 13:36:11 UTC https://padlet.com/2024bayuse/t7dy33l53jl46mgc/wish/2185723597 2024bayuse https://padlet.com/2024bayuse/t7dy33l53jl46mgc/wish/2185724711 2022-05-16 13:36:51 UTC https://padlet.com/2024bayuse/t7dy33l53jl46mgc/wish/2185724711 2024bayuse https://padlet.com/2024bayuse/t7dy33l53jl46mgc/wish/2185726275 2022-05-16 13:37:37 UTC https://padlet.com/2024bayuse/t7dy33l53jl46mgc/wish/2185726275 2024bayuse https://padlet.com/2024bayuse/t7dy33l53jl46mgc/wish/2185733313 -How is DNA like a book? A book contains letters, just like the DNA; like a book, DNA stores, copies, and transfers information to offspring.
-How many total copies of a chromosome result at the end of replication? In basic terms, replication goes from 1 copy of a chromosome to 2.
-What is the role of covalent bonds in the structure of DNA (what does it hold together)?  To keep the phosphate and 5c sugar
-What is the importance of telomerase for telomeres? Telomerase is responsible for adding the telomere base pairs to the ends of a chromosome in order to protect the DNA in the center of the chromosome. ]]> 2022-05-16 13:41:14 UTC https://padlet.com/2024bayuse/t7dy33l53jl46mgc/wish/2185733313 2024bayuse https://padlet.com/2024bayuse/t7dy33l53jl46mgc/wish/2185764001 The importance of DNA is that it gives off information of how you as a person grows and develops and how organisms survive. This is important because through DNA, we can learn stuff about ourselves that we probably never knew, like our heritage and where our family has come from. DNA can be applied to the world around us by understanding how animals lived on our planet in the past and how they survived and how each animal is related. ]]> 2022-05-16 13:58:03 UTC https://padlet.com/2024bayuse/t7dy33l53jl46mgc/wish/2185764001
