Description
Use this printable or digital homework assignment or study guide to provide your students with quality review questions on the structure of DNA. As I teach my unit on DNA, RNA, and Protein Synthesis, I assign a portion of these questions for homework each night. The completed assignment provides a thorough study guide for the unit test. You can also use a few questions during class each day to check for student understanding of the concepts being taught.
This homework assignment provides 39 questions on the structure of DNA. It covers the basic concepts of nucleotides, nitrogen bases, the structure of the DNA molecule, the base pairing rules, and the important work carried out by Watson, Crick, Chargaff, and Franklin. See detailed list of concepts below.
Suitable for biology and life science students in grades 8-12.
Both printable and digital versions of this resource are included. The student handouts can be printed or used in the paperless digital format in your Google Drive, Google Classroom, Microsoft OneDrive, or similar. This resource is perfect for traditional classroom settings, 1:1 schools, or for distance learning.

When teaching my unit on DNA, RNA and Protein Synthesis, I provide my students with 4 different homework / study guides by dividing the information into 4 blocks:
Homework #1: The Structure of DNA
Homework #2: Replication of DNA
Homework #3: RNA and Transcription
Homework #4: Translation and Protein Synthesis
This listing is for the first assignment only: The Structure of DNA. You can view all 4 assignments bundled together by clicking this link: Bundle of 4 DNA and RNA Homework Assignments
This assignment was written for my Biology I class. It covers the concepts found in any Biology I text. This homework assignment contains questions of varying formats: Compare and contrast terms, fill in the blank, multiple choice, short answer, and true/false.
What concepts are covered in this resource?
Homework #1: DNA Basics (Total of 39 questions)
- History of DNA Studies: Early concepts about genes, roles played by genes, Watson and Crick, Chargaff, Rosalind Franklin, Maurice Wilkins.
- DNA nucleotides and their composition, purines, pyrimidines, how nucleotides are joined to one another, sugars, phosphates, and nitrogen bases.
- Chargaff’s Rules and the X-Ray evidence by Rosalind Franklin
- The Watson and Crick model of DNA, the double helix, the base pairing rules, DNA as a carrier of information.
- The structure of the DNA molecule
- Base pairing rules and complementary bases.
- Chemical bonding in the DNA molecule.
- Mechanisms by which a large amount of DNA can fit inside a small space of the nucleus, histones, nucleosomes.
