Biology

3. A cell's total hereditary information made up of one or more chromosomes
5. The process involving molecules that move into open spaces from areas of high concentration to low concentration
6. Cellular process in which the mRNA created from transcription is used to code for specific amino acids that build up into proteins
8. The smallest unit of all life
10. Stage of the cell cycle when two nuclei are formed, spindle fibers disappear, and the nuclear envelopes reappear
11. A genotype that indicates the presence of both a dominant and recessive allele
15. A genotype that indicates the presence of 2 of the same allele, either dominant or recessive
16. Stage of the cell cycle when the chromosomes line up along the middle of the cell
17. The protein coat of a virus which can come in different sizes or sometimes may have an envelope
19. Genetic code that is used to copy down DNA instructions to create polypeptides
20. Cellular process in which DNA sequences are used to create strands of mRNA
21. The process of sexual reproduction in which two parents create unique offspring

1. Plant pigment that reflects green and aids a plant during photosynthesis
2. A cellular process that breaks down glucose and oxygen to produce water, carbon dioxide and ATP
4. Type of cell that contains a nucleus and many membrane bound organelles
7. An RNA virus which works backwards, using viral RNA to reverse transcribe into viral DNA before replicating and creating viral proteins
9. The chemical processes that an organism uses to manage its energy and materials
12. Stage of the cell cycle when the nuclear membrane breaks down and spindle fibers begin to form
13. The cellular process of using light, water and carbon dioxide to produce glucose and oxygen
14. Stage of the cell cycle when spindle fibers shorten and pull the sister chromatids apart
18. An agent that increases the rate of a reaction without getting used up itself
