Biology 12 Unit 5 Dna Worksheet - Dna Strucuture 1

Sang Kee completed a Biology 12 worksheet on April 13th about the structure of DNA. [1] The worksheet contained a diagram to label with various parts of DNA including the nucleotide, deoxyribose, phosphate group, base pair, hydrogen bond, and nitrogenous base. [2] Sang Kee then answered questions about DNA, including that DNA stands for deoxyribonucleic acid, contains genetic instructions, and is located in the nucleus. [3] The worksheet tested Sang Kee's understanding of nucleotides, nitrogenous bases, base pairing, and transcription.

1
Directions: Answer or complete each sentence.
7. What do the letters DNA stand for? Deoxyribonucleic acid

8. What is the function of DNA? Contains genetic instructions for development of function of living things

9. What is DNA located? DNA is located in the nucleus.

10. A nucleotide is made of three parts: a Phosphate group, a five carbon sugar, and a nitrogenous base.

11. Guanine, cytosine, thymine, and adenine are the four Nitrogenous base in DNA.

12. The backbone of the DNA molecule is made up of two components, what are these?
a. deoxyribose b. phosphate group
13. There are four different variations of these monomers (four different bases), what are the names of
those bases?
a. Guanine b. Cytosine
c. Thymine d. Adenine
14. These bases are of two different types of molecules: purines and pyrimides.
Purines have two carbon nitrogen ring(s) in their structure, and pyrimidines have one carbon nitrogen
ring(s) in their structure.
15. The two bases that are purines are:
a. Adenine b. Guanine
16. The two bases that are pyrimidines are:
a. Cytosine b. Thymine
17. What type of bonds connect the deoxyribose sugars to the phosphate groups?
Covalent bond.

18. In complimentary base pairing, Adenine bonds with Thymine and Cytosine bonds with Guanine.

19. A section of one DNA strand has the sequence ACCGAGGTT. What is the sequence of an mRNA
transcribed from this section of DNA?
ACCGAGGUU

20. Fill in the blanks.

DNA strand: C T G T A A G A G G A G
mRNA strand: C U G U A A G A G G A G
