- 13. The complete set of genetic material in an organism.
- 14. The complete set of RNA molecules produced by the genome.
- 15. A technique used to separate and analyze mixtures of chemical substances.
- 16. The process of joining two DNA fragments together, typically using an enzyme called DNA ligase.
- 17. A method used to determine the precise order of nucleotides in a DNA molecule.
- 19. The study of heritable changes in gene expression that do not involve alterations to the DNA sequence itself.
- 21. Biology An approach to studying biology that focuses on the interactions between different components of a biological system.
- 23. The basic unit of heredity, a sequence of DNA that codes for a specific protein or RNA molecule.
- 24. A small, circular piece of DNA that can replicate independently of the bacterial chromosome, often used as a vector for cloning and gene expression.
- 28. The addition of a methyl group to DNA, often affecting gene expression.
