Campbell Biology Chapter 5
Subject:
? 2017 Pearson Education, Inc. Lecture Presentations byNicole Tunbridge and Kathleen Fitzpatrick Chapter 5The Structure and Function of Large Biological Molecules 1 The Molecules of Life All living things are made up of four classes of large biological molecules: carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids Macromolecules are large molecules and are complex Large biological molecules have unique properties that arise from the orderly arrangement of their atoms ? 2017 Pearson Education, Inc. Concept 5.1: Macromolecules are polymers, built from monomers A polymer is a long molecule consisting of many similar building blocks The repeating units that serve as building blocks are called monomers Carbohydrates, proteins, and nucleic acids are polymers ? 2017 Pearson Education, Inc.

Current Event Assignment Becoming an informed citizen is one of the goals of this course, as per the College Board. This assignment will benefit you as a lifelong learner as well as build your background base of ready information essential for success on the AP exam next May. One current event, not more than six months old, is due every Friday this 9-weeks. When your name is called, you must present your article according the rubric below. All students will keep an on-going log of topics presented. Students will present a one-paragraph summary of the article/source. See the attached formulaic model of a summary paragraph, the model to be tweaked, treasured, or trashed. Current Events?

The Molecular Basis of Inheritance Life?s Operating Instructions * In 1953, James Watson and Francis Crick introduced an elegant double-helical model for the structure of deoxyribonucleic acid, or DNA * Hereditary information is encoded in DNA and reproduced in all cells of the body * This DNA program directs the development of biochemical, anatomical, physiological, and (to some extent) behavioral traits * DNA is copied during DNA replication, and cells can repair their DNA Concept 16.1: DNA is the genetic material * Early in the 20th century, the identification of the molecules of inheritance loomed as a major challenge to biologists The Search for the Genetic Material: Scientific Inquiry

Organic Compounds The Structure and Function of Macromolecules Biological Molecules The study of carbon compounds, organic chemistry, focuses on any compound with carbon (organic compounds) Proteins, DNA, carbohydrates, and other molecules that distinguish living matter from inorganic material are all composed of carbon atoms bonded to each other and to atoms of other elements Carbon Atoms Carbon is building block of molecules Carbon has 4 valence electrons Can form 4 covalent bonds Tetravalence by carbon makes large, complex molecules possible Carbon Skeletons Carbon chains form the skeletons of most organic molecules The skeletons may vary in length and may be straight, branched, or arranged in closed rings. The carbon skeletons may include double bonds.

DNA
Subject:
Bio Study Guide Proteins are made of amino acids that are strung together in a chain. Each 3-letter DNA sequence, or codon, encodes a specific amino acid. DNA-->mRNA-->Protein: Dna to mrna is called transcription, mrna to protein is translation DNA is a double helix, backbone is made up of sugar and phosphate DNA is made up of 4 nucleotides Adenine and Thymine always pair, Guanine and Cytosine always pair DNA Technology and Genomics E. Coli- an organism used to clone genes Restriction Enzyme- Used to cut DNA at a specific location for splicing Biotechnology-Using organisms or their components to make useful products Genetic engineering-direct manipulation of genes for practical purposes Plasmid- a small piece of bacterial DNA used for gene transfer
