Clues

  • A sequence of base triplets in mRNA that code for specific amino acids (7, 4)
  • Bonds between two DNA ploynucleotides (8)
  • DNA is copied onto RNA to move out of the nucleus (13)
  • Genes in DNA that don't code for amino acids (7)
  • Introns are removed from pre-mRNA through... (8)
  • RNA leaves nucleus and joins with a ribosome, use for protein synthesis (11)
  • the genetic code is ....... because there are more possible combinations of triplets than there are amino acids (10)
  • The same base triplets code for the same amino acids in all living things (9)
  • Transcription factors that decrease the rate of transcription (10)
  • Transcription factors that increase the rate of transcription (10)
