Across
  1. 3. DNA strand that has the same nucleotide sequence as mRNA with the exception of U in the mRNA and T in the DNA
  2. 5. sequence of three nucleotides in a DNA or RNA molecule that acts as unit of genetic code
  3. 8. Organelle that synthesizes proteins by translating mRNA into long chains of amino acids
  4. 9. adapter molecule that acts as bridge between the genetic code in mRNA and amino acids during protein synthesis
  5. 10. nucleotide triplets of DNA and RNA that carry genetic information
  6. 11. a region of DNA that acts as a building site for RNA polymerase and transcription factors
  7. 12. change in a cells DNA sequence
  8. 14. single DNA strand that serves as the blueprint for creating a complementary strand during transcription
