Across
- 3. DNA to RNA; gene expression begins
- 7. Cell growth and DNA replication phase
- 9. Self-replicating molecule carrying genetic information
- 10. Cytoplasm divides; two daughter cells form
- 12. Cell division producing 2 identical daughter cells
- 13. Two identical alleles for a trait
- 15. Changes in DNA sequence; alter genes
- 16. Chromosomes align in the middle of the cell
Down
- 1. Sister chromatids separate; move to opposite sides of the cell
- 2. making proteins from genetic code
- 4. Chromosomes condense, nuclear envelope breaks down
- 5. Two different alleles for a trait
- 6. Building block of DNA and RNA
- 8. Simple sugar; basic energy source for cells
- 11. Adenine, Guanine, Cytosine, and Thymine
- 14. Chromosomes decondense; nuclear envelope reforms
