What is the BASE PAIRING RULE for A=T
DNA? C=G
What is the base pairing rule for A=U
RNA? C=G
During the s-phase of interphase, the WHAT: Way to copy DNA using master strand as
cell replicates its DNA using "SEMI- instructions on how to build the other side
CONSERVATIVE REPLICATION". -half of something is going to be conserved, half
Explain WHAT this means and WHY it preserved
is so important
WHY: It's a very careful way to copy DNA
Explain exactly what happens during The cell will use SEMI - CONSERVATIVE DNA
"semi-conservative DNA replication" REPLICATION to copy all
of its DNA prior to mitosis or meiosis. In this
process, the original (master?) strand of DNA will
be split in half by DNA HELICASE and then DNA
POLYMERASE will copy each half to produce two
new and identical DNA molecules from the
original.

List 3 differences between DNA and DNA:
RNA -double stranded
-nitrogenous bases: ATCG
-base pairing rule: A=T & C=G
-location: nucleus
RNA:
-single stranded
-nitrogenous bases: AUCG
-base pairing rule: A=U & C=G
-location: nucleus & cytoplasm
What is a chromosome? Draw a Chromosome: Condensed/compressed
"duplicated CHROMOSOME" and superspooled DNA molecule
LABEL all the parts WHEN: during PROPHASE
WHEN do chromosomes first appear
in the cell cycle? (label parts: centromere & sister chromatids)
Describe 2 cellular events that happen during
INTERPHASE
Describe 2 cellular events that -Cell growth
happen during INTERPHASE -DNA replication
-Protein synthesis
(more specifically)...
-G1 phase = cell growth, organelles double
-S phase = synthesis of DNA, semi-conservative
DNA replication
-G2 phase = protein synthesis, preparation for
mitosis +++
-G0 phase = specialized cell "jobs" = secretion,
muscle contraction,
