Across
  1. 2. segment of DNA that codes for a protein or trait
  2. 3. nitrogenous base that pairs with guanine
  3. 6. phase in the cell cycle where two new nuclei form
  4. 8. phase of the cell cycle where DNA is replicated
  5. 10. control mechanism that ensures the cell is ready to proceed to the next phase
  6. 12. nitrogenous base that pairs with adenine
  7. 14. a mass of cells that form due to uncontrolled cell division
  8. 16. phase in the cell cycle where the nuclear membrane dissolves
  9. 18. phase in the cell cycle where the cytoplasm separates into two separate daughter cells
