Across
4.process in the cell nucleus where enzymes make a mRNA copy of DNA
6.mutation caused when parts of chromosomes break off or rejoin incorrectly
7.RNA that transports information from DNA in the nucleus to the cell's cytoplasm
10.process of converting information in mRNA into a sequence of amino acids in a protein
