Across
3.	/ the material of which the chromosomes of organisms other than bacteria are composed
8.	Primer / Add a short segment of RNA
10.	Replication / Method of DNA replication in which parental strands separate, act as templates and produce molecules of DNA w/ one parental DNA strand and one new DNA strand
12.	/ a substance capable of causing cancer in living tissue
14.	/ an organelle near the nucleus of a cell that contains the centrioles
16.	Strand / Is built continuously by the addition of nucleotides to the 3’ end
17.	Cycle / a threadlike structure of nucleic acids and protein found in the nucleus of most living cells, carrying genetic information in the form of genes

Down
1.	/ a threadlike structure of nucleic acids and protein found in the nucleus of most living cells, carrying genetic information in the form of genes.
2.	/ having a single set of unpaired chromosomes
4.	Fragment / short sequences of DNA nucleotides which are synthesized discontinuously and later linked together by the enzyme DNA ligase to create the lagging strand during DNA replication.
5.	/ an enzyme that brings about ligation of DNA or another substance
6.	Chromatid / the identical copies formed by the DNA replication of a chromosome
7.	Strand / Elongates away from the replication fork
9.	Polymerase / Enzymes that catalyzes synthesis of new DNA molecules
11.	/ a structural unit of a eukaryotic chromosome
13.	/ Are a class of enynes vial to all living organisms
