Across
  1. 9. one random allele for each gene to a gamete
  2. 10. dominant/recessive alleles of 1+ genes
  3. 11. x-linked recessive traits tend to be more common in _______
  4. 12. first step of translation
  5. 13. if both parents are affected but their offspring isn't: autosomal _______
  6. 15. Mendel's law where each parent only passes
  7. 16. sequences of mRNA that are removed (not coded for) and allow for alternative splicing
  8. 18. inheritance where a gene for a trait is found on the X or Y chromosome
  9. 19. type of dominance, in a cross between a white (WW) and red (RR)flower there would be pink offspring
Down
  1. 1. process where ribosomes and tRNA synthesize the amino acid sequence coded for in the mRNA
  2. 2. last step of translation
  3. 3. type of dominance, in a cross between a white and red flower, there would be spotted offspring
  4. 4. sequences of mRNA that code for the protein
  5. 5. type of RNA that carries instructions for producing a specific protein, is a copy of a gene
  6. 6. not determined by simple dominant/recessive alleles, involving 1+ genes
  7. 7. central_____, describes the flow of a cell's genetic info
  8. 8. if both parents are unaffected but their offspring is: autosomal _________
  9. 13. cross between two parents who differ in two traits
  10. 14. type of RNA that carries amino acids to the ribosome in translation and puts them on the chain
  11. 17. process where an mRNA strand is created from a DNA template strand
  12. 20. second step of translation
