Across
- 4. polynucleotide chains that carry genetic hereditary information
- 6. The act of creating offspring
- 8. When there are two different alleles
- 10. the structure found in the nucleus (46 strands bunched together)
- 12. a part of DNA of which carries DNA to create a protein
- 13. the more apparent gene that overrides the others
- 15. the genetic coding/sequencing of DNA
Down
- 1. the visible characteristics or traits of an offspring based on genotype
- 2. reproductive cells such as sperm or egg cells
- 3. a single set of chromosomes received from one parent (23 per one)
- 5. the gene that is present in an offspring (one if received from each parent)
- 7. Instructions given to these by DNA, building blocks of amino acids
- 9. When alleles are the same
- 11. the less apparent gene that is shown in the genotype, rather than the phenotype
- 14. the process of reproducing with one parent
