TAKS Review
DNA, Cell Growth and Genetics
Structure of DNA
• The structure of DNA is called a double helix, it looks like a twisted ladder
• DNA is made of repeating pieces called nucleotides
• Nucleotides are made of a 5-carbon sugar, a phosphate group, and a nitrogenous base
Structure of DNAThere are four different nitrogenous bases in DNA.
Only certain bases can bond. They pair to form the rungs of the ladder.
AdenineAdenine bonds to ThymineCytosine bonds to Guanine.
The sides of the twisted ladder are made of alternating sugar and phosphates

DNA Replication
DNA makes an exact copy of itself using old strands as a template to make new strands.
Getting information from DNA
DNA CONTAINS THE CODE TO
MAKE PROTEINS
• DNA cannot leave the nucleus
• messenger RNA (mRNA) is a copy of the code that is used to make proteins on the ribosomes
• If even one nucleotide is missing or changed, the resulting mutation can alter the protein being produced
Transcription uses DNA to make mRNA in the nucleus; mRNA leaves nucleus
Translation uses the mRNA, tRNA, rRNA and ribosomes to create a chain of amino acids that will become proteins.
What are some differences between DNA and RNA?
Practice Question
If the template of a strand of DNA is 5’AGATGCATC 3’ , the complementary strand
will be-A. 3’ TCTACGTAG 5’

D. 5’ AGACGTCTA 3’

Cell Growth
• As an organism grows their cells do not get bigger, they increase in number.
• Mitosis is the formation of two new daughter cells that are identical to each other and the original parent cell
• If mitosis is not controlled, cells multiply too quickly---this forms a tumor.
• Cancer is uncontrolled cell growth
How cells divideInterphase (longest phase)
Metaphase
Anaphase
Telophase
Cytokinesis
Prophase
Prometaphase
Two new cells IDENTICAL to the parent cell
Meiosis
• Type of cell division by which germ cells (eggs and sperm) are produced.
• Involves a reduction in the amount of genetic material.
Quick Vocabulary Review
Eggs and sperm are called sex
cells, germ cells or gametes
Genetics and Punnett Squares
• Genotypes are the genetic make up of organisms
Genotype: TT, Tt, or tttt
• Phenotypes are the physical characteristics
Phenotype: tall or shortshort
• Homozygous would be TT or tt
• Heterozygous would be Tt
Try this: RrYy x RrYY

Remember capital letters are dominant, so lower case letters are… recessive
