DNA Workshop
This Shockwave interactive online activity allows students to move nucleotides to mimic DNA replication and the processes of transcription and translation in protein synthesis. Students drag and drop nucleotides to show replication and transcription, and then drag and drop nucleotides to show protein synthesis. Information is also provided on the website about each step of the process.
This online activity directly relates to the u201cchecku201d of using models of DNA, RNA, and amino acids to explain replication and protein synthesis. Students demonstrate DNA replication, transcription, and translation.
