In your own words, write a 2-paragraph summary of protein synthesis. The first paragraph should be about transcription, and the second paragraph should be about translation. Try to use as many of the vocabulary words we've learned as you can.

(drag each tile to the correct location.) categorize each term as something that is typical of a scientific theory, a scientific hypothesis, or both. - a tentative statement used to guide scientific investigations. - makes predictions about future events. - can be tested by many independent researchers. - based on observations of natural phenomena. - a well-established, highly reliable explanation.

The human genome project is devoted to mapping the general dna sequence of our species. this could lead to the development of new medicines, as well as the possibility of using gene therapy to treat certain diseases. however, there are some ethical issues surrounding the mapping of individual genomes. one concern is a) that your genes may change over time, making the project useless. b) that insurance companies could discriminate based on genetic make-up. c) that since this has never been done before, we should probably not do it now. d) that sequencing our individual genomes is so expensive, it is a counter-productive strategy.

Step 1 review the imaginary strand of dna below. note the complementary base pairs. a g c a a t c c g t c t t g g t c g t t a g g c a g a a c c step 2 to begin replicating this strand of dna, draw the two sides of the strand separating. step 3 now, draw the free-floating bases linking up with the separate sides. remember to follow the rules of complementary base pairing. step 4 draw the two resulting dna strands.
