The learners demonstrate an understanding of how the information stored in DNA
is being used to make proteins.
The learners demonstrate an understanding of how changes in a DNA molecule
may cause changes in its product.
Explain how protein is made using information from DNA. (S10LT-IIId-37)
K: Identify the basic parts of a nucleotide.
S: Compare and contrast the structures of the DNA and RNA molecules using a
Venn diagram.
A: Evaluate importance of DNA & RNA in protein synthesis.

Essential Question:
What is the difference between the DNA and RNA?
Activity 1. “Getting to know the DNA and RNA Structure.”
(refer to pp. 266-268 of LM)
DNA
Component molecules
1. The DNA molecule is composed of three types of component molecule:
phosphate group, the sugar deoxyribose, and the bases adenine, thymine, cytosine,
guanine (A, T, C, G).
Nucleotides
2. There are three molecules that form the basic building block of DNA: the
nucleotides. Each nucleotide is composed of one phosphate group, one sugar
molecule, and one of the four bases. Across the strands of the helix, A always pairs
with T, and G with C.
RNA
Ribonucleic Acid, like DNA, is a nucleic acid. However, RNA structure differs
from DNA structure in three ways, shown in Figure 2. First, RNA is single
stranded – whereas DNA is double stranded. Second, the sugar in RNA is ribose;
DNA has deoxyribose. Finally, both DNA and RNA contain four nitrogenous
bases, but instead of thymine, RNA contains a similar base called uracil (U). The
uracil pairs with adenine. The major types of RNA include: messenger RNA
(mRNA), ribosomal RNA (rRNA), and transfer RNA (tRNA).

Guide Questions:
Q1. What are the components of the DNA and RNA molecule?
The DNA and RNA are made up of three components namely:
a. sugar
b. phosphate group, and
c. nitrogenous base.
Q2. What is the structural difference between DNA and RNA?
DNA and RNA are different in the following:
a. DNA is double stranded while RNA is single-stranded.
b. The sugar in DNA is deoxyribose while that in RNA is ribose.
c. The nitrogen bases in DNA are adenine (A), guanine (G), thymine (T) and
cytosine (C). In RNA are adenine, guanine, cytosine and uracil.
Q3. What nitrogenous base is found in RNA but not in DNA? Uracil
What is the importance of DNA & RNA?
Our hair, skin and nails are made up of proteins.
What is protein synthesis? The process in which cells make proteins.
How can the genes in the DNA be translated into proteins?
What are proteins? They are composed of amino acids linked together by peptide
bonds.
What are the roles and functions of proteins?
 channels in membranes – control the movement of molecules in and out of the
cell.
 structural molecules – for example, making up hair or muscle in animals.
 hormones – to regulate the activity of cells.
 antibodies – in the immune system.
 enzymes – to act as catalysts in biological systems.

DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) and RNA (ribonucleic acid) work together to

produce proteins from genetic codes. Genetic codes are found in DNA or RNA
which is made up of nucleotide bases usually in three’s (triplet) that code for the
amino acids making up the proteins.
