biology

1. replication the process by which the genome's DNA is copied in cells.
9. the basic building block of nucleic acids
11. the process of making an RNA copy of a gene's DNA sequence
13. molecules carry the genetic information needed to make proteins
14. the process by which a cell replicates its chromosomes and then segregates them
15. enzymes that bind and may even remodel nucleic acid
16. the process that cells use to create proteins
18. A molecule made up of amino acids
19. genetic information inside the cells of the body that helps make people who they are
20. Any change in the DNA sequence of a cell

2. acids large biomolecules that play essential roles in all cells and viruses
3. a type of cell division in sexually reproducing organisms that reduces the number of chromosomes in gametes
4. structure found inside the nucleus of a cell
5. the process by which a cell makes proteins using the genetic information carried in mRna
6. nucleic acid present in all living cells that has structural similarities to DNA
7. brings about the formation of a particular polymer,
8. unit of heredity passed from parent to child
10. an enzyme which brings about ligation of DNA or another substance.
12. ribozyme which carries out protein synthesis in ribosomes.
16. an enzyme that synthesizes short RNA sequences called primers.
17. type of RNA molecule that helps decode a mRna sequence into a protein.
