Across
  1. 5. type of sugar that is found in DNA
  2. 6. strand that is replicated in short fragments and away from the replication fork
  3. 10. enzyme that extends telomere so that entire genome is replicated
  4. 12. DNA molecule is unwound and separated in the region of the nucleotide damage
  5. 13. strand that is synthesized continuously in the 5' to 3' direction that is synthesized in the direction of the replication fork
  6. 15. nitrogenous bases only found in RNA
  7. 16. type of sugar that is found in RNA
  8. 17. nitrogenous base only found in DNA
  9. 18. short stretch of RNA nucleotides that is required to initiate replication and allow DNA polymerase to bind and begin replication
  10. 19. enzyme that helps to open the DNA helix during DNA replication by breaking the hydrogen bonds
Down
  1. 1. DNA polymerase corrects its mistake
  2. 2. replication proteins bind to specific nucleotide sequence to begin replication
  3. 3. oritentation of DNA's double stranded helix
  4. 4. enzyme that synthesizes a new strand of DNA complementary to a template strand by adding DNA nucleotides to the 3' end of the template
  5. 7. nucleotides are made up sugar, nitrogenous base, and ________ group
  6. 8. group of nitrogenous bases made up of one ring
  7. 9. group of nitrogenous bases made up of two rings
  8. 11. non-complementary nucleotides are recognized, excised, and replaced with correct nucleotides
  9. 14. enzyme that catalyzes the joining of DNA fragments together by removing RNA primer and adding DNA nucleotides
