    This document contains a DNA structure worksheet with questions about DNA structure and composition. The questions cover topics like the monomers that make up DNA (nucleotides), the sugar-phosphate backbone, the four nitrogenous bases (adenine, cytosine, guanine, thymine), the pairing of bases through hydrogen bonds (A pairs with T and C pairs with G), and how to draw and label the basic structure of a nucleotide. The worksheet instructs students to color different parts of the DNA structure diagram.

    DNA Structure Worksheet


    Use your DNA structure notes and Chapter 17 to answer these questions
    1. What do the letters DNA stand for?

    2. DNA is a polymer, which means that is made up of


    many repeating single units (monomers).
    What are the monomers called?

    3. The backbone of the DNA molecule is made up of


    two alternating components, what are these?

    4. There are four different variations of these monomers


    (four different bases), what are the names of those bases?

    5. These bases are of two different types of molecules: purines and pyrimidines. Purines have
    _______________________ ring(s) in their structure, and pyrimidines have _______________________ ring(s) in
    their structure.
    6. The two bases that are purines are _____________________ and ________________________. These bases are
    comprised of ___________ rings.
    7. The two bases that are pyrimidines _____________________ and ________________________. These bases are
    comprised of ___________ rings.
    8. Based on this information, scientist could predict that the base _______________________ pairs with
    _______________________ and the base _______________________ pairs with _______________________ in the
    formation of the DNA molecule.
    This is called complementary base pairs. Thus one strand of DNA is complementary to the other
    strand (opposite/matching).
    9. The bases are paired by _______________________ bonds along the axis of the molecule.

    NAME:__________________________________
    10. Draw the basic structure of a nucleotide with its three parts.

    11. Write the complementary sequence to following DNA strand:

    12. Use the image at the right to complete the follow:


    Circle a nucleotide.
    Label the sugar and phosphate.
    Label the bases that are not already labeled

    13. On the Following Page, color the DNA structure.
