DNA Structure Daily Question and Activity

Today we went over our notes about the structure of DNA and used Knex models to build a DNA model.  Our daily Questions are below


Wednesday April 11th
What are the three main parts that DNA is made up of? (What are the three parts of a nucleotide)
 Sugar phosphate backbone made up of Deoxyribose and a phosphate group attached to this are nitrogen bases

How do the 4 different nitrogenous bases pair up with each other?
 Adenine-Thymine (A-T)
Guanine - Cytosine (G-C)

Given the following Strand of DNA, please tell me what the complementary strand would be.
ATTGGCTCGGA
TAACCGAGCCT



THIS IS THE KEY TO WHAT EACH PART OF YOUR MODELS REPRESENTED
