We have been studying DNA for the past few days. Here are some DNA facts:
- DNA is in the nucleus of most cells
- DNA is made of nucleotides
- A = T
- G = C
- DNA has a double helix shape
- DNA tells the cell what kind of cell to be
- DNA comes from both parents (50% from each)
What else can you tell us about DNA? Leave your answers as a comment.
Today's topic was transcription and translation- how DNA makes RNA and how the RNA makes proteins. Here are the two animations we saw in class today:
