Griffith's experiment worked with two types of pneumococcal bacteria (a rough type and a smooth type) and identified that a "transforming principle" could transform them from one type to another.
At first, bacteriologists suspected the transforming factor was a protein. The "transforming principle" could be precipitated with alcohol, which showed that it was not a carbohydrate. But Avery and McCarty observed that proteases (enzymes that degrade proteins) did not destroy the transforming principle. Neither did lipases (enzymes that digest lipids). Later they found that the transforming substance was made of nucleic acids but ribonuclease (which digests RNA) did not inactivate the substance. By this method, they were able to obtain small amounts of highly purified transforming principle, which they could then analyze through other tests to determine its identity, which corresponded to DNA.
Because the people that mae them wanted them to be very small
Answer: the rabbit
Explanation:
In ecology, biomass refers to the mass of organisms living within a specific region at a time. Biomass is measured and usually described as:
- the total mass of the organisms within a community
- the average masses per unit area
Typically, more numerous organisms, such as producers, have a higher average biomass. This may include plants, animals or microbes such as bacteria and fungi. In terrestrial environments, biomass is distributed in pyramid form; the carnivorous hawk preys on rabbits and birds, which are nearer to the base of the pyramid- each predator population would have a lower biomass than its prey.
The birds weigh 100 grams while the rabbit weighs 150 grams.The rabbit has a higher total mass
Answer:
B
Explanation:
Environmental factors don't determine all of your genetics traits but they do influence them.
Answer:
See the answer below please.
Explanation:
There are different types of mutations:
- Substitutions: the exchange of one base for another occurs (eg changes a C for an A), which could lead to a codon change that codes for a different amino acid causing changes in nascent protein, generating a codon that codes for the same amino acid without any change in nascent protein; generate a different codon for the amino acid: a stop codon and cause an incomplete protein to form.
-Insertions: base pairs are added to the DNA sequence.
-Deletions: base pairs are removed from the DNA sequence.
