Biology crossword

7. Dogma The process by which genetic information flows from DNA to RNA to protein.
9. The first growth phase of the cell cycle, where the cell grows and prepares for DNA replication.
10. A chain of amino acids linked together, which folds into a functional protein.
14. A type of RNA that carries the genetic instructions from DNA to the ribosome for protein synthesis.
16. The process where mRNA is decoded to build a protein at the ribosome.
18. A type of RNA that brings the correct amino acids to the ribosome during protein synthesis.
19. The process where the cytoplasm divides, forming two separate daughter cells.
20. A sugar molecule found in DNA nucleotides, differing from ribose by lacking one oxygen atom.
21. The life cycle of a cell, consisting of phases of growth, DNA replication, and division.
23. A sequence of three nucleotides on mRNA that codes for a specific amino acid.
25. The process of copying DNA to produce two identical DNA molecules.
28. The first stage of mitosis, where chromosomes condense, and the nuclear envelope begins to break down.

1. The stage of mitosis where sister chromatids are pulled apart to opposite poles of the cell.
2. A process where proteins lose their structure and function due to factors like heat or pH changes.
3. The final stage of mitosis, where two new nuclei form, and the chromosomes decondense.
4. The process of copying a DNA sequence into mRNA.
5. A disease caused by uncontrolled cell division due to disruptions in the cell cycle.
6. A chemical reaction that absorbs heat.
8. The phase of the cell cycle where the cell grows, replicates DNA, and prepares for mitosis.
9. A resting phase where the cell is not dividing or preparing to divide.
11. Part of the cell cycle where DNA synthesis (replication) occurs.
12. The process of nuclear division in eukaryotic cells, resulting in two identical nuclei.
13. A sequence of three nucleotides on tRNA that pairs with a codon on mRNA.
15. Processes or organisms that require oxygen to function.
17. Processes or organisms that do not require oxygen to function.
22. A sugar molecule found in RNA nucleotides.
24. Refers to the orientation of the two strands of DNA, which run in opposite directions.
26. A chemical reaction that releases heat.
27. Synthesis The process of creating proteins from the genetic code, involving transcription and translation.
