Across
- 3. a cell differentiation process that ensures the production of fertilizing sperm, which ultimately fuse with an egg to form a zygote
- 6. Produces the mitotic spindles for cell division. Help to pull chromosome pairs apart to opposite end of the cell
- 11. large protein assemblies that connect chromosomes to microtubules of the mitotic and meiotic spindles in order to distribute the replicated genome from a mother cell to its daughters
- 12. the relationship between a phenotype and a genetic polymorphism or between two genetic polymorphisms
- 13. process of distributing a copy of each chromosome to each daughter cell
- 14. the resting phase between successive mitotic divisions of a cell, or between the first and second divisions of meiosis
Down
- 1. characteristic chromosome complement in terms of number and morphology of the chromosomes that make up its genome
- 2. genomic DNA complexed with several classes of chromosomal proteins
- 4. genetic problem or condition that occurs as a result of an abnormality (or more than one) in the genome
- 5. chromosome members of a pair of chromosomes that carry matching genetic info
- 6. the study of chromosomes, their structure, and their inheritance
- 7. organized structure of DNA and protein as rod-shaped organelle that is found in cells
- 8. ordinary somatic cell division
- 9. the kind of genetic information that is carried in a particular DNA segment
- 10. division of germline cells
