Answer:
Explanation:
A. The bacteria DNA will contain most of the radioactivity. The reason is that the DNA is made up of a sugar phosphate backbone which forms its structural framework. One grinding up the bacteria, the radioactive phosphate will likely react with the DNA.
B. In the second instance, the proteins will contain the radioactivity this is because, the DNA does not have any reaction with sulphur, on the other hand, proteins contain about 3 - 6% sulphur.
I think the more features two organisms share or the shared anatomical features, the closely related they are. For example; the class insecta (e.g bee, butterfly) and the class arachnida (e.g spider and tick) belong to phylum arthropoda because they have similar anatomical features such as appendages, segmented body among other features.
