Across
- 4. binds to cytosine which creates the strongest connection between strands because there are 3 hydrogen bonds instead of 2
- 6. the type of bond that forms when Adenine binds to Thymine that is critical for the binding of the double helix.
- 8. the group of bases that includes Adenine and Guanine
- 9. a loop type structure that can be found in the tertiary structure of RNA
- 12. the type of DNA replication that is happening on the leading strand.
- 13. the enzyme that is used to unwind the coiling of a DNA strand
- 14. the structure when multiple RNA strands interact with each other
- 15. the base that is only found in RNA
Down
- 1. the central molecular building blocks of DNA
- 2. a short fragment of DNA that is formed on the lagging strand during DNA replication
- 3. the type of bond that connects bases to build a single strand of DNA
- 5. the group of bases that incudes Cytosine and Thymine
- 7. a type of virus that has an RNA genome
- 10. the enzyme that adds a base to the complementary strand during DNA replication
- 11. the enzyme that splits a double strand of DNA as one of the first steps of DNA replication
