Across
- 2. small, circular, double-stranded DNA molecule that carries accessory genes separate from those of a bacterial chromosome
- 4. a specific gene or DNA sequence that produces a detectable trait with a known location on a chromosome and that can be used to study family and population, identification of cells, species, or individuals
- 6. introduction of genes into an afflicted individual for therapeutic purposes
- 7. tandemly repetitive DNA at the end of a eukaryotic chromosome's DNA molecule that protects the organism's genes from being eroded during successive rounds of replication
- 8. organism whose genome contains a gene introduced from another organism of the same or a different species
- 9. set of cell clones containing all the DNA segments from a genome, each within a plasmid, phage, or other cloning vector
- 10. organism that transmits pathogens from one host to another
Down
- 1. molecular genetic method that enables identification of individuals using hair, blood, or other biological samples, based on unique patterns in their DNA
- 3. any relatively unspecialized cell that can produce, during a single division, one identical daughter cell and one more specialized daughter cell that can undergo further differentiation
- 5. double-stranded DNA molecule made in vitro using mRNA as a template and the enzymes reverse transcriptase and DNA polymerase
