3. DNA code Does it mean anything? ACACGCCTTAAGATC GGTTTGCAGTAGATG ATGTGCGGAATTCTAG CCAAACGTCATCAGCT

4. A piece of DNA that contains a code is known as a __________. ACACGCCTTAAGATC GGTTTGCAGTAGATG ATGTGCGGAATTCTAG CCAAACGTCATCAGCT

5. Genes contain the directions for making __________.

6. Everyone’s codes are slightly different. This means that different people make ____________ proteins. Person 1 AAGTTCGCC Person 3 AAGGGCGCC Person 5 AAGTTTACC Person 4 AAGTTCGAA Person 2 AAGTTCCCA

7.  Proteins determine our looks, functions and behavior and even how we are put together while still inside our mothers!

8. Example Person 1 Person 2 CGGAAGTTAGCCTACATGC CGGAAGTTCCCATACATGC Gene Different codes, different proteins, different eye colors

9. If proteins make up our body, and DNA contains the code for proteins.. Person 1 AAGTTCGCC Person 3 AAGGGCGCC Person 5 AAGTTTACC Person 4 AAGTTCGAA Person 2 AAGTTCCCA then differences in the bases would cause differences in our bodies!

10. Compare the 2 recipes below for chocolate chip cookies. Recipe 1 Ingredients  2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour  1 teaspoon baking soda  1 teaspoon salt  1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened  3/4 cup granulated sugar  3/4 cup packed brown sugar  1 teaspoon vanilla extract  2 large eggs  2 cups (12-oz. ) semi-sweet chocolate chips  1 cup chopped nuts Recipe 2 Ingredients  1 cup (2 sticks) salted butter, softened  ½ cup sugar  1½ cup packed brown sugar  2 eggs  2 tsp. vanilla extract  2¾ cups (12 oz) all-purpose flour *If at all possible, please weigh the flour  ¾ tsp. smallish-medium coarse sea salt  1 tsp. baking soda  1½ tsp. baking powder  2¼ cups semi-sweet chocolate chips

11.   Proteins are made in a part of the cell known as the _________________________.   The _____________________ are found outside of the nucleus in the _______________________.

12. Proteins are made of amino acids found in the cytoplasm. (strung together like beads on a necklace)

13. DNA’s Helpers  DNA never leaves the nucleus of the cell. It is protected there.  So how does the code get to the ribosome??

14. DNA’s Helpers  The DNA code can be copied to another chemical known as RNA.
