2. They made the model of DNA called the double helix.

3. She created images that suggested DNA has a spiral shape.

4. He came up with rules that tell us which bases bind together.

5. He used plants to study the way traits are passed from parents to offspring.

6. She is the first successful cloned mammal.

7. The mathematical chance that an event will occur.

8. A set of instructions for a trait.

9. The passing of traits from parents to offspring.

10. The set of instructions for each characteristic donated by the parent to the offspring.

11. DAILY DOUBLE! When each gene blends because they are both dominant.

12. This base pairs with adenine.

13. This base pairs with guanine.

14. The amount of bases it takes to make one amino acid.

15. The three materials that make up a nucleotide.

16. The “factory” where amino acids are made.

17. The inherited combination of alleles. (Hint – what the GENES say!)

18. An organism’s appearance. (Hint – what you SEE!)

19. The trait that always appears or shows up in the offspring.

20. The trait that seems to “hide” in the offspring.

21. The number of instructions a fertilized egg receives from EACH parent.

22. This is caused by a change in the order of bases that come out of the “factory.”

23. Where genes are found.

24. DAILY DOUBLE! The number of chromosomes that a normal human GAMETE cell has.

25. When one of the original bases in a DNA sequence is replaced by a new base.

26. This is currently used to genetically alter plants, make glow in the dark plants, and clone.
