Daily Summary 01-29

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
HONORS BIOLOGY
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

IN CLASS:

Objectives: SWBAT (1) demonstrate transcription and translation (protein synthesis, a.k.a. “Central Dogma of Biology”) on paper

Warm-up: If a cell suddenly was in need of a particular protein, like amylase (an enzyme used to break down starch into simpler sugars) for example, how would the molecular machinery of the cell know what the correct sequence was for the string of amino acids that forms amylase so that it could build this polypeptide?

Stamp / go over Transcription and Translation Practice #1 [10]

Transcription and Translation Practice #2

DNA and Central Dogma Review

Check / stamp case study: “Meselson and Stahl Experiment”


OUTSIDE OF CLASS:

Transcription and Translation practice #2 (DUE TOMORROW)

DNA and Central Dogma Review (DUE THURSDAY)
