Geometry & Biology

3. a segment of the chromosome doubles
6. line or line segment that separates an angle into two equal parts
8. two lines that intersect to create 90 degree angles
10. the middle of a line segment, creates two equal parts
12. A healthy copy of a gene is introduced into defective cells
13. a change in the nucleotide base sequence of a gene or DNA molecule
14. types of angles that are adjacent to each other and add up to 180 degrees

1. a chromosomal segment breaks off and flips around backwards
2. line or line segment that is perpendicular and passes through the midpoint of another line segment
4. two lines that never intersect
5. mutations that cause death, usually before birth
7. two angles that add up to 180 degrees
9. two angles that add up to 90 degrees
11. the loss of a piece of chromosome due to breakage
