Genetics

7. the process of duplicating or producing an exact copy of a polynucleotide strand such as DNA
9. pyrimidine base that is a component of DNA and RNA that binds with Guanine
11. process by which genes coded information is converted into structures present and operating in a cell
12. the genetic constitution of an individual organism
13. passing on of traits from parents to their offspring
14. unit of heredity which is transferred from parent to offspring
15. purine base that is a component of DNA and RNA that binds with Thymine or Uracil

1. pyrimidine base that is a component of RNA that binds with Adenine
2. a structure in all living cells that consists of a single molecule of DNA bonded to various proteins that carries the genes determining heredity.
3. pyrimidine base that is a component of DNA that binds with Adenine
4. is the process by which the information in a strand of DNA is copied into a new molecule of messenger RNA (mRNA)
5. cell duplication where the parent cell gives rise to two genetically identical daughter cells
6. purine base that is a component of DNA and RNA that binds with Cytosine
8. physical and psychological characteristics of an organism from both genetics and environment
10. is the process by which a protein is synthesized from the information contained in a molecule of messenger RNA (mRNA)
