  3. 10. trinucleotide sequence that codes for an amino acid
  4. 11. compounds that increase mutations
  5. 12. the type of replication that shows that replicated DNA consists of a parent strand and a daughter strand
  6. 15. enzyme used to break ester bonds in a polynucleotide chain
  7. 16. when the same sequence of DNA encodes to multiple different proteins
  8. 18. sequencing technique that the release of a pyrophosphate is used to detect a newly added base
  9. 19. genes that do not reside in the nucleus and are transcribed and translated in the organelle in which they reside
Down
  1. 1. purines tend to be clustered on the nontemplate strand while, pyrimidines tend to cluster on the template strand
