DNA and Protein Synthesis
Click on the picture and Access the link to introduction to DNA activity.
Essential Questions:
A great flash based interactive tutorial for understanding where DNA is Found.
Very helpful Site for understanding the process of transcription and translation
- How does the central dogma explain the relationship between DNA, proteins and inherited traits?
- Why must DNA replicate faithfully?
- What steps are involved in the production of protein from the DNA strand?
- I can describe the structure and function of DNA. (Try this as well)
- I can describe the Central Dogma of Biology: The process of DNA replication, transcription and translation and how each plays a role in protein production.
- I can predict the consequences that mutations in DNA of genes may have on an organism.
- I can describe the difference between inherited mutations and mutations that are not inherited.
- I can recognize that genetic engineering techniques provide great potential and responsibilities. (for help with what genetic engineering is)

LT 3 I can predict the consequences that mutations in DNA of genes may have on an organism.
LT 4 I can describe the difference between inherited mutations and mutations that are not inherited.
Agenda:
- Dry Labs 1,2, and 3 - Finish if you have not yet done so?
- Go to this link to find the reading Guide for Chap 11:3. Make a copy of the reading guide and complete the reading guide with a partner (you may work alone if you wish). Find images of the mutations on the internet and add them to the document to support your answers where needed and be prepared to discuss your responses in class.
- Submit your Chap 11:3 Reading Guide into Schoology when finished.

- Review Wednesdays Reading Assignment - Are all mutations created equal?
- Read the article posted at this link. When completed, make a journal entry in your Bio B journal that addresses the following prompt. "Genetic testing offers enormous amounts knowledge about your personal genetic background and potential disorders you may be prone to having. Provided it was affordable, would you want to have the test done? Why or why not? Support your thoughts with no less than 3 facts cited by the article" Minimum volume(length) is 3 paragraphs.
TBD - I can recognize that genetic engineering techniques provide great potential and responsibilities.
