DDT was a highly effective insecticide developed in the 1940s. DDT was so good at killing mosquitoes and reducing malaria that i

ts inventor, Paul Muller, won the Nobel Prize. But in the 1960's it was discovered that DDT is taken up by algae in the water, increasing in concentration at each step of the food chain, because the pesticide remains in the fat tissues of organisms. The ecological problem that resulted from DDT use is called A) biohazard. B) bioremediation. C) biomagnification. D) food chain interruption.

You have screened for several new recessive mutations in a species of wasp. Wasps homozygous for apricot (aa) have pale orange e
egoroff_w [7]

A pure-breeding double-mutant (apricot, blunt) has aabb genotype, wild-type wasp has genotype AABB. If we cross them:

P: aabb  x  AABB

F1: all the genotypes would be AaBb

If we ten cross the F1 dihybrids with the double-mutant line:

AaBb  x  aabb

F2:  (table)

The four phenotypes are: 1) wild-type, 2) wild type apricot-short, 3) pale orange-wild type  blunt, 4) double-mutant.

The possible haploid genotypes of the gamete it received from the F1 dihybrid:  AB, Ab, aB, ab. AB and ab are nonrecombinant (nonREC), like those from parents, while Ab and aB gamets are recombinant (REC) .

In the late 1950s, Meselson and Stahl grew bacteria in a medium containing "heavy" (radioactive) nitrogen (13N) and then transfe
irina1246 [14]
<h2>Replication </h2>

Explanation:

Meselson and Stahl began the experiment by growing E. coli in medium, or nutrient broth, containing a "heavy" isotope of nitrogen

When grown on medium containing heavy nitrogen the bacteria took up the nitrogen and used it to synthesize new biological molecules including DNA

After many generations growing in the heavy nitrogen, the nitrogenous bases of the bacteria's DNA were all labeled with heavy nitrogen and then the bacteria were switched to bacteria containing a light nitrogen and allowed to grow for several generations

They then measured the density of the DNA using density gradient centrifugation

Results obtained contained heavy DNA,Light DNA and hybrid of Light and heavy DNA

The experiment done by Meselson and Stahl demonstrated that DNA replicated semi-conservatively, meaning that each strand in a DNA molecule serves as a template for synthesis of a new, complementary strand

Had it been conservative mode of replication, DNA replication would have resulted in one molecule consisting of both original DNA strands (identical to the original DNA molecule) and another molecule consisting of two new strands (with exactly the same sequences as the original molecule)
