GENETICS
Across
- 3. RNA which is bound to the ribosome
- 5. allele expressing itself
- 7. process where proteins are built from the mRNA blueprint
- 10. portions of DNA molecules that determine characteristics of living things
- 12. gene composition of a living organism
- 13. how many copies of each gene every person has
- 14. cells in most complex organisms
- 16. first step towards making proteins
- 17. developed by biologists
- 18. study of how genes bring about characteristics or traits
- 19. expression of the genes of living things
Down
- 1. recessive allele
- 2. situation in which both alleles are equally strong and both alleles are visible in the hybrid genotype
- 4. consists for about 100,000 genes for a human cell
- 6. different forms of gene
- 8. Mendel believed that certain factors are passed from parents to their ---------
- 9. model for the structure of DNA was proposed by them
- 11. science of genetics was developed by him
- 14. the true structure of a DNA molecule
- 15. cells formed through meiosis
