Across
- 6. is the process of copying information from DNA to RNA
- 7. is a conservative process in which the donor bacterium retains a copy of the genetic material being transferred
- 9. is a chromosome released by a destroyed cell breaks into fragments small enough to be accepted by a recipient cell
- 10. is the segment of DNA that controls transcription of structural genes by binding to a repressor protein
- 12. is the inhibition of the gene expression and decrease protein synthesis
- 15. is the process by which a molecule turns a gene on
Down
- 1. is the process where mRNA is used to produce a protein
- 2. is any change to the nucleotide sequence
- 3. is the expression of the genotype creates traits
- 4. is a group of trois nucleotides in mRNA that each encode for an amino acid
- 5. is the sum of all gene types
- 8. is the study of heredity of living things
- 11. is an event in which one bacterium donates DNA to another bacterium
- 13. is a set of operator and promoter sites and the structural genes they control
- 14. is the segment of DNA where RNA polymerase initiates transcription
