Nucleic Acids
Elements Nucleic Acids Contain C, H, O,N, P
Nucleotides: Monomers of Nucleic Acids nitrogenous
Nucleotides: 3 parts 5-C sugar Phosphate Base Nitrogenous Base A, T, C, G
Sing Along Songs - Row, Row, Row Your Boat We love DNA Made of nucleotides Sugar, Phosphate, and a base Bonded down one side Adenine with thymine make a lovely pair Cytosine without guanine would feel very bare.
4 Nitrogenous Bases A = adenine T = thymine C = cytosine G = guanine
Base Pairing A – T C - G
RNA and DNA RNA is single stranded DNA is double stranded
SNEAK PREVIEW DNA molecule Sections of it are genes Genes are the codes that make specific amino acids that link together to make a protein
