Molecular Genetics
Across
- 3. location of DNA in eukaryotic organisms and the site of DNA replication
- 5. term used to describe how each half of the DNA serves as a template for a new strand during replication
- 7. transports amino acids to a ribosome during translation
- 9. frame shift mutation where a nucleotide is deleted
- 10. part of the ribsome structure
- 12. made in the nucleus and carries the "message" of DNA to the cytoplasm to direct protein synthesis
- 13. nitrogenous base that pairs with guanine
- 14. location of DNA in prokaryotic organisms and the site of translation
- 15. Point mutation where the wrong amino acid is coded
Down
- 1. point mutation where the codon becomes a stop codon
- 2. frame shift mutation where a nucleotide is deleted
- 4. step in replication that is considered continuous
- 6. term that describes the importance of DNA-RNA-Protein
- 8. nitrogenous base that pairs with Thymine in DNA and Uracil in RNA
