Genetics Bio project

3. the visible part of the gene that can be seen on a person
4. a compound which is one of the four constituent bases of nucleic acids
11. nucleotide changes and causes amino acids to change
12. studies how individual genes or groups of genes are involved in health and disease
14. mutation that inserts or deletes one or more nucleotides
16. acids building blocks of proteins
17. a compound found in living tissue as a constituent base of nucleic acids
18. large complex molecules that play many critical roles in the body

1. nucleotide change creates/destroys a start or stop codon
2. having two different alleles of a particular gene or genes
4. DNA is copied as mRNA
5. a random change in the sequence of DNA
6. three nucleotide sequence
7. DNA is copied to create an identical strand of DNA
8. nucleotide changes but amino acid doesn't change
9. Mutation affects a single nucleotide
10. Ribosomes "read" the mRNA and use the information to build protiens
12. a compound that occurs in guano and fish scales, and is one of the four constituent bases of nucleic acids
13. the invisible part of the gene that cannot be seen on a person
15. having two identical alleles of a particular gene or genes
