Weeks 23rd & 24th: DNA, RNA, & Protein Synthesis

Students will learn about the history, the structure, and the function of  our genetic material, namely, the DNA molecule. Students will learn how this vital molecule plays a key role in the processes of protein synthesis, namely, transcription and translation. Students will have an opportunity to simulate the production of a protein molecule that is based upon the directions that are put forth by the DNA molecule and transcribed by the RNA molecule as this protein molecule gets translated upon the subunits of the ribosomal RNA structure.
