Structure and function of DNA
Cards in this deck (8)
- 1Sugar phosphate backbone and double helix structureProvides strength and stability
Protects information coded in the bases and hydrogen bonding between bases - 2Long moleculeCan store a lot of information
- 3Helix structureCompact
- 4Base sequencecodes for amino acids and therefore protiens
- 5Double strandedallows semi conservative replication because each strand can act as a template
- 6Complementary base pairingsAllows accurate replication
- 7Hydrogen bonds between bases are weakeasily broken and seperation of strands for semi conservative replication
- 8Many hydrogen bonds in the whole moleculeStrong and stable molecule
