  1. 3. A type of RNA that forms part of the ribosome and helps in protein synthesis.
  2. 4. The sugar molecule found in the backbone of DNA.
  3. 6. The process of synthesising a protein from an mRNA template at the ribosome.
  4. 7. A permanent change in the DNA sequence of a gene, which can be inherited or arise spontaneously.
  5. 11. A molecule that makes up the rungs of the DNA ladder.
  6. 14. The cellular process of building proteins based on the information encoded in DNA.

  1. 1. An enzyme that synthesises new DNA strands by adding nucleotides complementary to the template strand during DNA replication.
  2. 2. The Y-shaped region where the DNA double helix is actively being unwound and replicated.
  3. 5. The complete set of genetic material (DNA in most organisms) present in an organism or cell
  4. 8. The process of synthesising an RNA molecule from a DNA template.
  5. 9. A nucleic acid involved in protein synthesis, transcription, and other cellular processes.
  6. 10. A type of RNA that carries the genetic information from the DNA to the ribosome for protein synthesis.
  7. 12. A type of RNA that carries amino acids to the ribosome during protein synthesis.
  8. 13. An enzyme that unwinds and separates the DNA double helix during DNA replication.
