Genetics
Across
- 3. Sinlge stranded genetic code
- 4. Base pairs with cytosine
- 8. This takes the place of thymine in RNA
- 10. the number of bonds between guanine and cytosine
- 11. Polymerase moves continuously on this strand
- 13. Organelle that DNA is stored in
- 15. A message carrying the genetic code to the ribosome
- 16. Double helix that provides genetic information from one generation to the next
- 17. the number of bonds between adenine and thymine
- 19. Unzips the strand of DNA prior to replication
- 20. short pieces of DNA formed on the lagging strand
- 21. Works in the 5' to 3' direction
Down
- 1. Base pairs with thymine
- 2. This strand is formed by the creation of okazaki fragments
- 5. Sets out a primer for polymerase to attach to
- 6. DNA codes for these to be made
- 7. this is th type of bond that holds the two strand together in DNA
- 9. Base pairs with guanine
- 11. attaches okazaki fragments together
- 12. Made up of deoxyribose sugar, a phosphate group, and a nitrogen base
- 14. DNA is considered this becuase half of it is original and half of it is new
- 18. Base pairs wtih adenine
