Identify the parts of a nucleotide
Explain the purpose of replication
Describe the function of the enzymes associated with DNA replication (Helicase, DNA ligase, DNA polymerase)
Understand the shape and structure of a DNA molecule
Differentiate between replication of the leading and lagging strand of a DNA molecule

Read an amino acid table/wheel
Describe the different types of mutations and the effects they would have on an organism
Understand the process of gel electrophoresis and be able to interpret results of gel electrophoresis/DNA fingerprinting.
Be able to translate and transcribe an DNA sequence (DNAmRNA tRNA amino acid) and describe what
happens if there is a mutation in the sequence
Be able to explain the process of DNA replication using appropriate vocabulary
Understand factors that regulate gene expression
