DNA Worksheet

Answer the following in at least 100 words:

1. Describe the structure of DNA.

A DNA molecule which is the abbreviation for deoxyribonucleic acid is made up of precise lengthy chains of polymers and monomers and they are called nucleotides. These two (2) chains specifically which are composed of DNA strain are then molded by the grouping of the nucleotides into the polynucleotides. The nucleotide is composed of a nitrogenous base, a phosphate and a group. In DNA there are four (4) nucleotides that can be found along the DNA chain. These four (4) nucleotides are (T) thyme, (A) adenine, (C) cytosine, and (G) guanine. These four (4) nucleotides are fused together by their covalent bonds. In other words the sugar and the phosphates which composes the sugar/phosphate support of the polynucleotide.

2. How does an organism’s genotype determine its phenotype?

An organism’s genotype is the genetic makeup of that organism. This is the bases of nucleotide in the organism’s DNA. The phenotype is the distinction between an organism’s physical traits, in which it derives from the actions of the broad variety of proteins. The buildup of an organism is composed of the structural proteins and the metabolic activities that are catalyzed by the enzymes. The combination of the proteins is quantified by the DNA. Nonetheless a protein is not assembled by a gene, nevertheless communicates the instructions to do so in the form of the RNA. This programs the process of the protein.

3. Describe each stage of the flow of information starting with DNA and ending with a trait.

"DNA nucleotide bases consist of a particular code. Specific strands of this code are termed genes." (Simon, Reece, & Dickey 2010) A specific trait expression begins with genes code for particular proteins. In eukaryotic cells in the dictation this stage from DNA to RNA transpires in the nucleus and then RNA is handled before it enters the

    Deoxyribose Nucleic Acid (DNA) is a polynucleotide molecule that encodes the genetic instructions used in the development and functioning of all known living organisms and many viruses. Most DNA molecules are double stranded helices, consisting of two polynucleotide strands made up of simpler molecules known as nucleotides. A nucleotide is made up of an organic nitrogenous base, a deoxyribose sugar and phosphate groups. It is order of these bases which make up the genetic code; a set of rules, by which information is encoded within genetic material.…

    TRANSCRIPTION: Transcription is the process of which DNA matches corresponding RNA bases, Transcription is located in the Nucleus, and the only type of RNA that is involved in Transcription is mRNA, and the purpose is so that the code can get out of the Nucleus, mRNA is also made through Transcription, It also takes information that doesn't directly make proteins but it helps makes codes for the production of proteins, DNA Transcription consist of 4 nucleotide bases, Adenine, Thymine, Cytosine, Guanine. Transcription also unwinds the strand of DNA and the RNA comes in and matches then becomes a single strand. The only thing that changes during this process is the Thymine gets replaced with Uracil.…

    How does an organism’s genotype determine its phenotype? The phenotype is an organism in a class to which that organism belongs as determined by the description of the physical and behavioral. Because of the Characteristics of the organism for example the size and shape, its metabolic activities, and it’s, pattern of movement. Physical traits arise from the action of a wide variety of proteins. For example structural protein helps make up the body of an organism, and enzymes, catalyze and metabolic activities. The genotype is a class to which that organisms belong as determine by the description of the actual physical material made-up of DNA that was passed to the organism by its parents at the organism conception. An organism genotype is its genetic makeup is the sequence; of nucleotide determine its phenotype can be seen in eye color.…
