List 3 differences between a DNA & RNA molecule
DNA is double stranded; RNA is single stranded
Nitrogenous Bases for DNA: A, C, G, T; RNA: A, U, C, G
DNA has a deoxyribose sugar; RNA: ribose sugar
DNA has the genetic code; RNA is a small copy of the genetic code.
DNA can't leave the nucleus; RNA has to leave the nucleus

What is the difference between Tertiary and Quaternary Protein Folding?
Tertiary - Proteins collapse & are functional. All proteins have this structure.
Quaternary - Proteins are attached to other proteins to make them larger. NOT all proteins are built to this structure!

What is the difference between an independent and dependent variable?
Independent = What the scientist changes/experiments on
Dependent = What the scientist measures/looks at for change

DAILY TRIPLE
Explain how an Ant and it's Colony is similar to a monomer of a macromolecule.
An Ant has a specific job. It works with other ants that have the same job to accomplish a task to benefit the Queen and thus the future generations of the colony.
Monomers have specific functions. They can be build into functional macromolecules that have a job to accomplish a task that will benefit the cell and thus future generations of cells.
