Across
- 4. holds two chromatids (daughter cells) together
- 5. process of the two daughter cells separating
- 9. Set of DNA that is normal for an organism in a particular species.
- 11. long arm of eukaryotic chromosomes.
- 12. a protein that gives structural support for chromosome + DNA wraps around this in a chromosome
- 15. DNA that is not tightly wound up and more “open” this section of DNA is considered to be turned ON
- 16. Are pairs of chromosomes with the same gene regions
Down
- 1. Attached together by a centromere - they separate from each other during cell division
- 2. An individual’s complete set of chromosomes
- 3. section of DNA that is tightly wound around nucleosomes - the section is considered to be turned OFF
- 6. Sections of DNA are wrapped around the nucleosome. Nucleosomes are made of histone protein.
- 7. “ball of yarn” or rolled up DNA in a cell.
- 8. Region on the top of a chromosome
- 10. have only one of each chromosome
- 13. One of the halves of a chromosome that has been replicated (sister chromatid)
- 14. Short arm of eukaryotic chromosomes
- 17. small pieces of DNA,
