Description
This remote-learning-ready, google slides lesson introduces students to the structure and function of nucleic acids. Students examine pictures of representations of DNA to determine that nucleotides are the building blocks of DNA and that DNA molecules are a double helix. Then they read a one page article to describe the chemical structure of nucleic acids, to determine the complementary strand of four DNA molecules, to distinguish a nucleotide, an RNA molecule, and a DNA molecule by pictures, and to describe hydrolysis and dehydration synthesis of nucleic acids. Finally, students separate pictures of objects and pictures of molecules into categories, deciding whether they are examples of nucleic acids, a different type of organic molecule, or an inorganic molecule.
