Unit 5
Across
- 2. a long chain of amino acids bonded together
- 4. chracteristic of an organism determined by genes
- 9. when part of a chromosome is removed
- 10. helps carry out genetic instructions
- 11. where dna is found in eukaryotic cells
- 13. cell organelle that assembles proteins
- 14. stores all genetic codes for life
- 15. monomer or single building block of proteins
- 17. mistake or error in genetic material
- 18. process of creating proteins using the genetic codes found in dna
- 19. grouping of three bases on a strand of nRNA that codes for one amino acid
- 20. the copy of the gene
Down
- 1. change 1 nucleotide in DNA through substitution
- 3. grouping of three bases on a strand of dna that codes for amino acid
- 5. when part of a chromosome is reversed and put back in the same place
- 6. copies dna to form mRNA
- 7. sequence of dna that codes for one protein that controls a trait
- 8. when part of a chromosome is repeated
- 12. decoding the mRNA translating it into an amino acid sequence
- 16. when part of a chromosome breaks off and is put back in the wrong place
