    1. The document provides instructions for students to construct a model of a DNA molecule using cutouts representing the basic subunits - phosphate, deoxyribose sugar, and the nitrogen bases (adenine, guanine, thymine, cytosine). 2. Students are told to assemble the model by gluing the subunits together to form nucleotides, then attaching the nucleotides in a specific sequence to represent one half of the DNA ladder, and completing the other half by adding the complementary bases. 3. Questions are provided to check students' understanding of the key parts of nucleotides and how the complementary base pairing of adenine with thymine and guanine with cytosine results in equal numbers of each base pair in

    COMMONWEALTH HIGH SCHOOL

    SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY


    SY 2020-2021

    GRADE (JHS): 9
    QUARTER 1 Living Things WEEK: 4

    Activity Title : DNA Modeling


    Objectives:
    Identify the components of a DNA molecule
    Construct a model of a molecule of DNA

    Materials:
    Cutouts of basic subunits of DNA Scissors
    Crayons Tape or glue

    Procedures:
    1.Cut out all of the units needed to make the nucleotides from the handout provided.
    2.Color code:
    phosphate-brown; deoxyribose sugar-black; and nitrogen bases:

    adenine-yellow; guanine- green; thymine- blue; cytosine-red

    3.Using the small squares and stars as guide lineup the phosphate and sugars.
    4. Now glue the appropriate parts together forming nucleotides. Construct DNA model using the
    following sequence to form a row from top to bottom:
    Thymine Adenine Cytosine Guanine Adenine Cytosine

    5. Let this arrangement represent the left half of your DNA molecule.

    6. Complete the right side of the ladder by adding the complementary bases. You will have to
    turn them upside down in order to make them fit.
    Guide Questions:
    1. What are the common parts of a nucleotide?

    2. What is the one part of the nucleotide that differs among the other different nucleotides?

    3, List the different kinds of nitrogen bases.

    4.Is there always going to be an equal number of adenine and thymine nucleotides in molecule?
    Why?

    5.Is there always going to be an equal number of guanine and cytosine nucleotides in a
    molecule? Why?
