Cell Division and Central Dogma

  1. DNA in different forms
  • DNA basic structure Remember nucleotides?Drawings?
  • What is a gene? Centromere?
  • Homologous Chromosomes
  1. Gene Expression
  • Central Dogma? What is this?
  • Enzymes involved?
  • What is made?
  • How does a zygote become something much more complicated
  • What is gene expression and why is it important (remember the movie form 23 and me)
