Across
- 2. only pairs with thymine
- 4. only pairs with adenine
- 8. there is always equality in quantity of bases
- 9. made up of units called nucleotides
- 10. genetic material that carries information about an organism from one generation to the next
- 12. only pairs with cytosine
- 14. messenger that carries information to ribosomes where translation occurs
- 15. binds nucleotides to form the new DNA strand, finds corresponding base pair for strand
