=Class Agenda:=

May 22:

Create a presentation/essay explaining the following: What is DNA? What is the structure. What is DNA Replication? What are the steps? What are the enzymes involved? What is the result?

What is protein synthesis? What are the steps? What is transcription? What is translation? What is formed at the end?
