day 2

This what I saw.


Day 2:
Topics covered:

  • RNA  
  • Protein synthesis
    • transciption
    • translation
  • nutrients
    • proteins
    • carbs
    • lipids
  • condensation synthesis
  • hydrolysis
PLOs:

C1. demonstrate a knowledge of synthesis and hydrolysis as applied to organic polymers
C2. distinguish among carbohydrates, lipids, proteins, and nucleic acids with respect to chemical structure
C3. recognize the empirical formula of a carbohydrate
C4. differentiate among monosaccharides, disaccharides, and polysaccharides
C5. differentiate among starch, cellulose, and glycogen
C6. list the main functions of carbohydrates
C7. compare and contrast saturated and unsaturated fats in terms of molecular structure
C8. describe the location and explain the importance of the following in the human body: neutral fats, steroids, phospholipids

C10. differentiate among the primary, secondary, tertiary, and quaternary structure of proteins
C11. list the major functions of proteins
C12. relate the general structure of the ATP molecule to its role as the "energy currency" of cells

E1. demonstrate a knowledge of the basic steps of protein synthesis, identifying the roles of DNA, mRNA, tRNA, and ribosomes in the processes of transcription and translation
E2. determine the sequence of amino acids coded for by a specific DNA sequence, given a table of mRNA codons
