Past Assignments
Due:
3-Dimensional DNA Model
Your assignment is to build a 3-D model of the DNA double helix. The model must accurately and clearly show the following:
Double helix structure
Sugar phosphate backbone
Nitrogenous bases are correctly bonding
A minimum of 6 base pairs
Note: You may use any material in your home, as long as it's appropriate for school and not from a pre-made DNA model kit. *Think outside the box!*
Grading: 25 points
Sugar phosphate backbone (4 pts)
Components in proper locations and relationship to other components (4 pts)
Components easily recognized or distinguished *provide a key if needed* (2 pts)
4 different components (type, color, etc) to represent the 4 bases *provided a key if needed* (4 pts)
At least 6 base pairs long (6 pts)
Double helix shape (2 pts)
3-D shape (1 pts)
Submission: Make your model and record a video of yourself explaining the structure, why you chose to make it out of what you did and how you made it. Be sure to explain the backbone, nitrogen bases, bonds, and base pairs.

Due:
To turn this in, you need to do 2 things...
1. Upload a picture of the LEFT slide of your TS7 day 2 notes. I need to see the page where you have transcribed and translated.
2. Then use the TS7 day 2 mutation information and compare it to the wild type DNA to write your CER Prediction. Attach your google doc and submit.

You have until 1:30 pm on Thursday to complete this video assignment
Due:
All done with your worksheet? Take a photo and turn in on google classroom. Then put your worksheet somewhere safe to keep.
Due:
Directions: If you need, refer to output slides at the end of TS1 day 1 slides
Part 1: Complete the Element structure and periodic table review.
Part 2: For each element on your lab worksheet, use the different colored beans to create a model for how the subatomic particles are located on the atom.
Determine the correct number and location for protons, neutrons, and electrons.
Don’t forget the 2-8-8 rule for electron shells.
When you are sure you are correct, draw a picture on your worksheet of the subatomic particle configuration before moving onto the next element.
When you are done, count your beans and make sure there are 39 total (13 of each color). Then return the beans and this piece of paper to the front table. Lastly, take a picture of both pages of your lab and upload them to google classroom.
