MIDDLE SCHOOL:PHYSICAL SCIENCE
Monday/Tuesday: create a crossword puzzle with 25 words from modules 1-3. There are some super sites online to make free crossword puzzles (make sure you find ones that will allow 25 words!)
Wednesday/Thursday: Make up 30 review questions for a review game this Friday. Please choose from modules 1-3 and answer your questions.
HIGH SCHOOL: BIOLOGY
Monday: Draw a sample of DNA going through transcription. Label where it is occurring, all nucleotide bases (you can make up your own sequence), mRNA
Tuesday: Draw the same sample DNA now going through translation. Label mRNA, tRNA, ribosomes, and amino acids.
Wednesday: Finish the protein synthesis worksheet handed out in class.
Thursday: Write 20 review questions from module 1, 5, 6 and answer them.
Ms Tyler? How on earth do you translate mRNA to tRNA??? I just cant seem to figure it out!!! plz help!!!!
ReplyDeleteHi Mrs. Tyler,
ReplyDeleteDonny is doing Physical Science this year and I think it would be fun for him to come to your Friday Addition Science class! I enjoy looking in on what you are doing. I can tell you LOVE science. Donny's teacher is Mr. Harmon from BJU and he is great too. We actually got to meet him on a visit to SC.
Have fun with your class!
Love, Aunt Bonnie
Aunt Bonnie!! Great to hear from you! I would love to have Donny join my class. We have a great group of kids we really enjoy the time we get to spend together each week. Hope all is well out west. We think of you guys and keep you in our prayers-you are all loved and missed!!

After the mRNA copies the DNA in the nucleus it carries the copy out to the ribosome and that is where tRNA is located. tRNA has the amino acid attached. The tRNA copies from the mRNA which produces a protein. We will discuss further in class on Friday. Read through the text a couple of times. Complete the CHNOPS worksheet and see if this all helps. YOU CAN DO IT-Don't GIVE UP!!
Mrs. Tyler
......its Maddie...and Jacob........er............
ReplyDeletei read it...still dont really know how.....i looked it up, too.....we know how to get the mRNA, but now the tRNA....stumped...completely....stumped
ReplyDeleteJacob says "Is the tRNA the same as the DNA?"
augh!
M and J
I don't understand wednesday and thursdays homework for the middle school.
ReplyDeleteRachael
Rachael- Look back through modules 1-3 and come up with questions that you could stump someone with. Example from module 1 "What is the difference between a atom and a molecule?" Then answer the question. This is meant to be a review to help prepare for the test.
ReplyDeleteM and J- There are alot of great videos on youtube. I would go there and type in dna translation to make a protein and there is some pretty great stuff!! This should help. Good luck guys!
Mrs. Tyler
oookay.
ReplyDeletethnx
M
Sorry, but there are no useful videos on youtube.
ReplyDeleteAll we need is help on how to get the tRNA
For example, the first question that we went over in class says:
Gene A
DNA- ACC GGT TAT
mRNA- UGG CCA AUA
tRNA- ACC GGU UAU
Amino acid sequence 20-12-13
Trait hairy
what we don't get is how do you get the tRNA, it seems to be close to the original DNA but it is different in a few places, I have scoured the internet and read the book over and over but I can't find out how to transfer the mRNA to the tRNA. Help please.
Jacob and Madeline
M + J- This is Shelby, and I hope I didn't do it wrong, but one thing that I do know about tRNA is that thymine replaces with uracil, like above, so the T's would switch with U's.
ReplyDeleteShelby
I hope I'm right on that. :/
ReplyDeleteShelby
Ok wait a minute sorry sorry sorry they switch with adenine. My bad. Yeah, adenine.
ReplyDeleteShelby
so you switch teh DNA with the mRNA, then you switch the mRNA with the tRNA......what i dont know how to do is switch the mRNA with the tRNA...how do you know what switches with what?...im so confused....
ReplyDeleteM
"CAAAAAAAAAKE"
sigh
ReplyDeleteM & J- This is the important thing to keep in mind the bases of
ReplyDeleteDNA= adenine & thymine and guanine & cytosine
tRNA & mRNA=adenine & uracil and guanine and cytosine
When you are pairing up those respected bases will ALWAYS pair up together. Therefore, when you go from DNA to RNA (mRNA or tRNA) adenine (DNA) will always pair with uracil (RNA); thymine(DNA) will always pair with adenine (RNA.
So in the sequence you gave mRNA UGG CCA AUA the tRNA would be ACC GGU UAU.
Again try. If still confused we will discuss in class!!
Mrs. Tyler
Shelby- your take on this is correct thanks for the help!!
Oh, yeah I get it now, thanks!
ReplyDeleteJacob and Madeline
i get it now...thank,...you
