In this activity, students build a model showing that DNA is enclosed in a histone cushion to form chromatin, the basic component of a chromosome. They use the model to demonstrate one way that ...

Although each human has a unique DNA sequence, the DNA in all of us is about 99.9 percent identical! In this activity you will make a model for a short section of DNA—enough to get a sense of ...

A group of scientists now visualized this dynamic process and give novel insights into the physical characteristics of DNA. Performing ... different physical models to cut through the data.
