Instructions for Side by Side Printing
  1. Print the notecards
  2. Fold each page in half along the solid vertical line
  3. Cut out the notecards by cutting along each horizontal dotted line
  4. Optional: Glue, tape or staple the ends of each notecard together
  1. Verify Front of pages is selected for Viewing and print the front of the notecards
  2. Select Back of pages for Viewing and print the back of the notecards
    NOTE: Since the back of the pages are printed in reverse order (last page is printed first), keep the pages in the same order as they were after Step 1. Also, be sure to feed the pages in the same direction as you did in Step 1.
  3. Cut out the notecards by cutting along each horizontal and vertical dotted line
To print: Ctrl+PPrint as a list

10 notecards = 3 pages (4 cards per page)

DNA Functions

front 1

What is the main role of DNA in living organisms?

back 1

DNA carries the genetic instructions for building and maintaining all living organisms.

front 2

What does the process of transcription involve?

back 2

Transcription involves copying the DNA code into messenger RNA (mRNA) in the nucleus.

front 3

Where does translation occur in the cell?

back 3

Translation occurs in the ribosome which is located in the cytoplasm.

front 4

What is the role of mrna in protein synthesis

back 4

mrna carries genetic information from the dna to the ribosome where proteins are made.

front 5

How are amino acids related to proteins?

back 5

Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins. They are linked together in a specific order to form a protein.

front 6

Why are proteins important for living organisms?

back 6

Proteins perform crucial functions such as, speeding up reactions, (enzymes) providing (structural proteins) and regulating body process (hormones and antibodies)

front 7

What is the enzyme and what does it do?

back 7

An enzyme is a type of protein that speeds up chemical reactions in the body.

front 8

What function do cell receptors serve?

back 8

Cell receptors recieve and transmit signals from outside the cell to regulate cellular activities.

front 9

How do antibodies help the immune system?

back 9

Antibodies are proteins that identify and help to neutralize foreign substances like viruses and baceteria.

front 10

What is the sequence of steps from DNA to protein synthesis?

back 10

The sequence is

1) Transcription of DNA into mRNA

2) Translation of mRNA into amino acid sequenceF

3) Folding of amino acids into a functional protein
