Protein Synthesis A histology technician studies the microscopic makeup of tissues cells and bodily fluids with the purpose of detecting and identifying the presence of a specific disease They determine blood types and the concentrations of drugs and other substances . THE STUFF OF LIFE. Biomolecules. Organic molecules made up of:. Carbon. Hydrogen. Nitrogen. Oxygen. a. nd sometimes Phosphorus. LATIN 101. Poly = . Many. Mono = . O. ne. Hydro = . Water. . (actually Greek). 36. Which . of the following statements best describes the structure of DNA. ?. A. . Two strands of proteins are held together by sugar . molecules. , . nitrogen bases, and . phosphate groups.. B. . Dr. . Sahar. Al . Shabane. Nucleic acids.  are biopolymers, or large . biomolecules. , essential for all known forms of . life. . Nucleic acids, which include . DNA.  (deoxyribonucleic acid) and . 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.. Attractive force between particles of the same kind. ____________________. Attractive force between unlike substances. _______________________. In a mixture of water and cool-aid which would be the solute and which would be the solvent?. Biomolecules. Organic molecules made up of:. Carbon. Hydrogen. Nitrogen. Oxygen. a. nd sometimes Phosphorus. LATIN 101. Poly = . Many. Mono = . O. ne. Hydro = . Water. . (actually Greek). Synthesis = . Biochemistry-Macromolecules 4 types Carbohydrates Lipids Proteins Nucleic Acids Carbohydrates Function of Carbohydrates Energy source!!! Energy is stored in the C-H bonds Plant Structure Cellulose is a carbohydrate found in the cell wall of plants The Double Helix (DNA). 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.. Learning . Goal . Describe the primary structures of DNA . and RNA. ..
