Across
  1. 2. polymerase:non-coding segments of DNA and RNA found within genes
  2. 5. strand: The specific single strand of a doubled stranded dna molecule that acts a blueprintfor synthesising complementary nucleic acids during transcription.
  3. 8. segments of DNA and RNA found within genes
  4. 10. single-stranded molecule that carries genetic instructions from DNA in the cell nucleus to the ribosomes in the cytoplasm.
  5. 11. sequence of three consecutive DNA or RNA nucleotides that corresponds to a specific amino acid or signals the start/stop of protein synthesis.
Down
  1. 1. base sequences within a eukaryotic gene that code for amino acid sequences
  2. 3. strand:Is the dna strand that holds the translatable genetic code.
  3. 4. post-transcriptional modification process where introns (non-coding DNA sequences) are removed from pre-mRNA, and exons (protein-coding sequences) are joined together.
  4. 6. small RNA molecule that acts as a physical "adaptor" during protein synthesis.
  5. 7. bond:a specialized, rigid covalent chemical bond that links amino acids together to form proteins
  6. 9. a sequence of three adjacent nucleotides located on a transfer RNA (tRNA) molecule.
