Across
- 4. the process by which a cell makes an RNA copy a piece of DNA
- 5. protein that help speed up metabolism, or the chemical reactions in our bodies
- 8. the relationship between two version of gene
- 10. a structure found inside the nucleus of a cell
- 14. having different alleles for a particular trait.
- 15. the presence of two identical alleles at a particular gene locus
- 16. a reproductive cell of an animal or plant
- 18. a molecule made up of amino acids
- 19. a nucleic acid present in all living cells that has structural similarities to DNA
Down
- 1. the process by which a cell makes proteins using the genetic information carried in messenger RNA
- 2. any change in the DNA sequence of a cell
- 3. one or two or more DNA sequences occurring at a particular gene locu
- 6. the product of the reproductive processes of a person, animal, or plant
- 7. a trait that is expressed only when genotype is homozygous
- 9. a special form of cell division in which each daughter cell receives half the amount of DNA as parent cell
- 11. the process by which a single parent cell divides to make two new daughter cells
- 12. synthesis the process in which cells make proteins.
- 13. molecule inside cells that contains the genetic information responsible for the development and function of an organisms.
- 16. the basic units of heredity passed from parent to child
- 17. a small RNA molecule that plays a key role in protein synthesis
