Down
- 1. discovered two rules that helped lead to the discovery of the double helix structure of DNA.
- 2. genetics, a deletion (also called gene deletion, deficiency, or deletion mutation) is a mutation (a genetic aberration) in which a part of a chromosome or a sequence of DNA is left out during DNA replication
- 4. genetics, a deletion (also called gene deletion, deficiency, or deletion mutation) (sign: Δ) is a mutation (a genetic aberration) in which a part of a chromosome or a sequence of DNA is left out during DNA replication
- 5. biology, a gene is a sequence of nucleotides in DNA or RNA that encodes the synthesis of a gene product, either RNA or protein.
- 7. compound consisting of a nucleoside linked to a phosphate group
