Pd. 2 due Monday, March 19 - - create a bell work assignment for a classmate to complete with an answer key.  10 matching!
 
Pd. 3 and 4 - - take the required notes and show me for credit.

Take out your notebook.
  1. At the top of the page title your notes "Transcription Animation Notes".
  2. You will visit a total of 3 websites and watch 3 different animations regarding the transcription.
  3. For each website you visit, write the title of the website (see below) and take notes on the steps of transcription. Pay attention to enzymes involved, when and why does it take place, the actual steps involves, the reactant and products.
  4. For each website you have to write different information. There may be times where you have to back to revisit a website to get additional facts.
 
Site #1 Title: Transcription
NOTE! For this animation, no words or steps are given. I thought this would be a great site to start with because it shows you the overall process while keeping it simple. For this animation, you might just write the reactants needed or involved. Then come back.
 
Site #2 Title: DNA Transcription
 
Site #3 Animation: mRNA Synthesis (Transcription) (Quiz 1)
