Across
  1. 2. contains ovules
  2. 4. passing traits from parents to offspring
  3. 5. right side of DNA
  4. 6. and organisms genetic material (deoxyribonucleic acid)
  5. 9. two alleles of a gene are the same
  6. 14. one nitrogen base is replaced with another
  7. 15. square model used to predict possible genotypes and phenotypes of offspring
  8. 17. "father of genetics"
  9. 18. where the pollen lands
  10. 21. trait blocked by dominant trait; only shown when there is no dominant
  11. 23. the two alleles that control the phenotype
  12. 24. when both alleles can be observed in a phenotype
  13. 29. at least one nitrogen base is left out
  14. 30. shows phenotypes of genetically related family members
  15. 31. attracts pollinators to flower
  16. 32. inheritance occurs when multiple genes determine the phenotype of a trait
  17. 33. left side of DNA
  18. 34. the process of making a protein from RNA from DNA is the first step in making a protein
  19. 35. how a trait appears
  20. 36. the process of making a protein from RNA
Down
  1. 1. male reproductive organ in plants
  2. 2. eggs for reproduction; form seeds with pollen
  3. 3. a change in the nucleotide sequence of a gene
  4. 7. where pollen forms on a flower
  5. 8. process of copying a DNA molecules to make another one
  6. 10. made of nucleotides, single stranded, has uracil instead of thymine
  7. 11. tube that sends pollen to the ovary
  8. 12. molecule made of a nitrogen base, sugar, and a phosphate group
  9. 13. female reproductive organ in plants
  10. 16. supports the anther
  11. 19. dominance when the offspring's phenotype is a combination of the parent's phenotypes
  12. 20. section on chromosome that has genetic information for a trait
  13. 22. two alleles of a gene are the same
  14. 25. different forms of a gene
  15. 26. at least one nitrogen base is added
  16. 27. trait blocks another genetic factor; always shown when present
  17. 28. protects the ovary
