PPT-Nucleotides. Nucleic Acid, and Heredity

What Are the Molecules of Heredity After scientists became aware of the differences in amino acid sequences their next quest was to determine how cells know which proteins to synthesize out of the extremely large number of possible amino acid sequences The answer is that an individual gets the information from its parents through .

(atom 1), amide nitrogen of glutamine (atoms 3, 9), components of the . Essential idea: The structure of DNA allows efficient storage of genetic information.. There is 2m of DNA in each human cell, however the most cells in the human body have a diameter of 10 . μm. . This DNA is divided in chromosomes and coiled around proteins called histones so that it can be efficiently stored in each cell's nucleus. The human genome project which has decoded the case sequence for the whole 2m of the human genome requires a data warehouse (pictured) to store the information electronically. This should give a good idea of just how efficient DNA is at storing information and why it needs to be so.. 1. Heredidity. Heredity. is the transfer of characteristics anatomical as well as biochemical, from generation to generation. . The transmission of hereditary information from one generation to another takes place in the nucleus of the cell, . Shabane.

Structural model:. Model proposed by Watson & Crick, 1953. Two sugar-phosphate strands, next to each other, but running in opposite directions.. Specific Hydrogen bonds. occur among bases from one chain to the other:. Each nucleic acid has its own unique sequence of bases that carries the genetic information from one cell to the next..
