Genetics
Across
- 1. the study of heredity
- 6. change in the structure of a gene or chromosome

- 11. the set of observable characteristics in an individual
- 14. the process of passing characteristics genetically from parent to child
- 15. a molecule that consists of a nitrogen-containing base (adenine, guanine, thymine, or cytosine) in DNA
Down
- 2. process of adaption that results in changes in genetic material
- 3. gene that masks the effects of the reccesive gene
- 4. is a specific characteristic of an individual
- 5. the genetic makeup of an organism (an organism's complete set of genes)
- 7. a different version of DNA sequence
- 8. gene whose effects are masked in the presence of a dominant gene
- 9. the smallest structure of an organism
- 12. obtaining genetically identical DNA molecules, cells, tissues, organs and organisms by biotechnology methods
