  3. 6. thread like structure found in nucleus of cells
  4. 7. single stranded RNA molecule that carries genetic instructions from DNA
  5. 14. region of chromosome which the microtubules of the spindle attach
  6. 15. creates protein by decoding genetic information in mRNA
  7. 16. a region of DNA that acts as a building site for RNA polymerase and transcription factors
  8. 18. the process by which cells make proteins
  9. 19. process of creating an RNA cope from a DNA template
  10. 21. change in a cells DNA sequence
  11. 22. three nucleotide sequence on a tRNA molecule that is complementary into a specific three nucleotide codon on a mRNA strand
Down
  1. 1. Organelle that synthesizes proteins by translating mRNA into long chains of amino acids
  2. 2. of DNA that provides instructions for a specific function
  3. 5. DNA strand that has the same nucleotide sequence as mRNA with the exception of U in the mRNA and T in the DNA
  4. 8. sequence of three nucleotides in a DNA or RNA molecule that acts as unit of genetic code
  5. 9. the process of a gene being turned on to produce its corresponding protein
  6. 10. Enzyme that synthesizes RNA from a DNA template in the process of transcription
  7. 11. non-coding DNA sequence within a gene that is transcribed into RNA then removed through RNA before he mRNA is translated to protein
  8. 12. segment of DNA or RNA containing coding for a protein or peptide sequence
  9. 13. nucleotide triplets of DNA and RNA that carry genetic information
  10. 14. material which chromosomes of organisms are composed
  11. 17. adapter molecule that acts as bridge between the genetic code in mRNA and amino acids during protein synthesis
