Starter Questions What is the function of DNA? Stores information for making proteins Where are proteins made in the cell? On the ribosomes in the cytoplasm Can No DNA leave the nucleus? Then how can the information for making proteins get to the ribosome? RNA is made

What differences do you notice between RNA and DNA?

What differences do you notice between RNA and DNA?

RNA vs DNA RNA • Sugar = ribose • Uses uracil instead of thymine

RNA vs DNA RNA • Sugar = ribose • Uses uracil instead of thymine • Single stranded DNA • Sugar = deoxyribose • Use thymine instead of uracil • Double stranded
