1. Nucleic Acids DNA, RNA, ATP

2. DNA – Deoxyribose Nucleic Acid Function: Codes for genetic material/instructions Production: Located on chromosomes in the Nucleus through the process of DNA Replication Can it leave the nucleus? No

3. RNA – Ribose Nucleic Acid 3 Types of RNA: mRNA, tRNA, rRNA Function: Codes for proteins Production: In the Nucleus through the process of Transcription Can it leave the nucleus? Yes

4. ATP – Adenine Triphosphate Function: Provides cellular energy Production: In the Mitochondria through the process of Cellular Respiration

5. Structure Elements: C, H, O, N, P Monomer: Nucleotide DNA – Double stranded (Double Helix) RNA – Single stranded

6. 3 Parts to a DNA Nucleotide 1.Phosphate 2.5 Carbon Sugar - Deoxyribose 3.Nitrogen Bases: Adenine – Thymine (A – T) Cytosine – Guanine (C – G) Sugar- Phosphate Backbone Weak Hydrogen Bond

7. 3 Parts to a DNA Nucleotide

9. 3 Parts to a RNA Nucleotide 1.Phosphate 2.5 Carbon Sugar - Ribose 3.Nitrogen Bases: Adenine – Uracil (A – U) Cytosine – Guanine (C – G) Weak Hydrogen Bond

10. 3 Parts to a RNA Nucleotide

12. Polymer: Nucleic Acid Monomer: Nucleotide Picture DNA 1.Phosphate 2.5 Carbon Sugar – Deoxyribose 3.Nitrogenous Bases: Adenine Thymine Guanine Cytosine Base-Pair Rules: A – T G – C Bases pair connect with hydrogen bonds RNA 1.Phosphate 2.5 Carbon Sugar – Ribose 3.Nitrogenous Bases: Adenine Uracil Guanine Cytosine Base Pair Rule: A – U G – C Bases pair connect with hydrogen bonds

13. DNARNA NAME TYPE OF SUGAR DOUBLE OR SINGLE STRANDED BASE PAIRS CAN IT LEAVE THE NUCLEUS DOUBLE HELIX FUNCTION WHERE IS IT MADE Deoxyribose Nucleic Acid Ribose Nucleic Acid Deoxyribose Ribose Double Single A –T G - C A –U G - C NO YES NO Genetic Code for characteristics Codes for proteins Nucleus
