DNA Replication ? ? Learning Objective Students will understand how the processes of DNA replication, transcription, and translation ensure the accurate transmission and expression of genetic information.
What is DNA replication DNA replication is the biological process where a double-stranded DNA molecule is copied to produce two identical DNA molecules, ensuring that each new cell receives the same genetic information.
DNA replication ● Semi-conservative: each new DNA molecule has one old strand and one new strand ● Requires enzymes and energy (ATP) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5qSrmeiWsuc
Transcription – Definition DNA → mRNA Transcription is the process by which the genetic information in a DNA sequence is copied into a complementary RNA sequence (mRNA). It occurs in the nucleus of eukaryotic cells.
Translation – Definition Is the cellular process where the genetic information from messenger RNA (mRNA) is used to synthesize a specific sequence of forming a polypeptide chain that folds into a functional protein amino acids, https://learn.genetics.utah.edu/content/basics/transcribe/
