Presentation on theme: "Amino acids are the building blocks of what macromolecule?"— Presentation transcript:

1 Amino acids are the building blocks of what macromolecule?
An organism’s genetic information is stored in which type of macromolecule? What two types of nucleic acids are found in living cells? What makes up chromosomes? What does DNA code for? Protein DNA DNA and RNA DNA Amino Acids

2 Chromosomes are made up of DNA, what does DNA stand for?
What is a nucleotide? What shape is DNA? Describe how amino acids, nucleotides, and DNA are related. Deoxyribonucleic Acid The building blocks of DNA and RNA (Phosphate, sugar, and a nitrogen base Double Helix Nucleotides make up DNA and DNA codes for Amino Acids

3 Describe the structure of DNA
What four nitrogen bases make up DNA, and which ones can bond together? Complete the new strand of DNA: G C T G A C T A DNA is made up of nucleotides and its shape is a double helix. Adenine, Thymine, Cytosine, Guanine (A&T, G&C) C G A C T G A T

4 Describe the basic structure of DNA.
How are DNA and RNA different? Describe the process transcription. Describe the process translation. Double helix, made of nucleotides, used Adenine, Thymine, Cytosine, and Guanine as nitrogen bases. Sugar, structure, and the nitrogen bases used. DNA is copied and mRNA is made. mRNA is read in codons to produce amino acids and ultimately makes proteins.

5 If the DNA strand is A T T G A C, then what will mRNA copy it as?
What is the first codon of this sequence? U A A C U G U A A

6 The sides of a DNA molecule are composed of what?
All the genetic material of an organism is called its… Phosphate and Sugar Genome

7 Which types of RNA are involved in protein synthesis?
The type of inheritance when you have White Flowers and Red Flowers and the offspring are Pink is known as… Messenger RNA, Ribosomal RNA, Transfer RNA Incomplete Dominance

8 23. If the mRNA codon was AAA, then what amino acid would that code for?
Lysine

9 tRNA transfers amino acids during which process?
During the process of , the information carried by the mRNA is used to produce proteins. tRNA transfers amino acids during which process? Translation Translation

10 He was the first to believe the species change over time
Lamarck’s theory was false, but why was it significant to science and the study of evolution? The hypothesis that species change over time by natural selection was proposed by… He was the first to believe the species change over time Charles Darwin

11 Physical or behavioral
Similar features or structures molded by natural selection in different species are what kind of structures? An adaptation is an inherited characteristic that can be… Analogous structures Physical or behavioral

12 There must be variation among the members of a population.
What was the main evidence of evolution in Darwin’s time? What is required from natural selection? A farmer selecting what animal he wants to breed would be considered what type of selection? Fossils There must be variation among the members of a population. Artificial selection

13 Domain, Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species
List the taxa from broadest to most specific Who developed the system of classification that divided organisms into two groups: plants and animals? Domain, Kingdom, Phylum, Class, Order, Family, Genus, Species Aristotle

14 Protista, Fungi, Plantae, and Animalia
Archaea are often found in what kind of environments? What Kingdoms are in the Domain Eukarya? Extreme Protista, Fungi, Plantae, and Animalia

15 Domain Bacteria and Domain Archaea
What two Domains consist of prokaryotes? What kind of infection do you most likely have if the doctor gives you an antibiotic? Domain Bacteria and Domain Archaea Bacterial infection

16 What virus cycle destroys the host cell?
What is nonliving and is made of protein and genetic material? lytic cycle A virus

17 True or False: A taxonomic genus contains related species.
What is a group of similar orders? True A class

18 How does an organism's habitat and niche differ?
Compare biotic factors and abiotic factors. An organism’s habitat is where it lives and its niche is what it does or its role in its environment. Biotic factors include all living factors in an organism's environment. While abiotic factors is any non-living factor.

19 What is the ultimate source of energy?
In an energy pyramid, which level has the smallest number of organisms ? What is the ultimate source of energy? A close relationship between two or more species that live together is called… The top level Sunlight Symbiotic Relationship

20 What is the difference between an omnivore and herbivore?
Organisms with overlapping niches probably have which type of relationship? What is the difference between an omnivore and herbivore? Competitive An omnivore eats both plants and animals and a herbivore only eats plants

21 From the picture, suppose 1000 units of energy are available at the level of the grasses what is the total number of energy LOST by the time energy reaches the coyote? 999 Units
