Protein+Synthesis

Keystone Competencies: // B.2.2.1Describe how the processes of transcription and translation are similar in all organisms. // // B.2.3.1. Describe how genetic mutations alter the DNA sequence and may or may not affect the phenotype (e.g., silent, nonsense, and frameshift) // // B.2.2.2. Describe the role of ribosomes, ER, Golgi, and the nucleus in the production of specific types of protein. //

Expected Student Learning Competencies
> code.
 * Explain that the information passed from parents to offspring is transmitted by means of genes which are coded in **DNA** molecules.
 * Explain how crossing over, jumping genes, and deletion and duplication of genes results in genetic variation.
 * Explain how **mutations** can alter genetic information and the possible consequences
 * Describe the basic structure of **DNA**, including the role of hydrogen bonding.
 * Explain how the process of **DNA** replication results in the transmission and conservation of the genetic
 * Describe how transcription and translation result in gene expression.
 * Cite evidence to support that the genetic code is universal.
