Across
- 2. Any alteration/change of the DNA sequence (order)
- 3. Deoxyribonucleic acid. Genetic information made up of 4 molecular bases
- 5. Organelle that controls cell activity and contains genetic info (including chromosomes)
- 7. A segment of DNA on a chromosome that codes for a protein
- 8. The trait that is only expressed when NOT masked by a dominant allele (requires 2 recessive alleles)
- 11. The subunits that make up DNA; the 4 molecular bases are A, T, C & G
- 12. Formation of new combinations of genes during sexual reproduction.
Down
- 1. Having 2 identical alleles for a single trait
- 3. A trait that masks the recessive trait in a heterozygous combination
- 4. A version or form of a gene
- 6. (Replicate) To copy DNA
- 9. Thick, threadlike structure that contains genes, made of DNA
