<h2>DNA </h2>

Explanation:    

1) Experiment done by Griffith:

  • Griffith used two related strains of bacteria, known as R and S
  • R bacteria were nonvirulent, meaning that they did not cause sickness when injected into a mouse whereas mice injected with live S bacteria developed pneumonia and died
  • Griffith tried injecting mice with heat-killed S bacteria (that is, S bacteria that had been heated to high temperatures, causing the cells to die), the heat-killed S bacteria did not cause disease in mice
  • When harmless R bacteria were combined with harmless heat-killed S bacteria and injected into a mouse, not only did the mouse developed disease and died, but when Griffith took a blood sample from the dead mouse, he found that it contained living S bacteria
  • Griffith concluded that the R-strain bacteria must have taken up what he called a transforming principle from the heat-killed S bacteria, which allowed them to transform into smooth-coated bacteria and become virulent

2) Experiment done by Avery:

  • Avery, McCarty and MacLeod set out to identify Griffith's transforming principle
  • They began with large cultures of heat-killed S cells and, through a long series of biochemical steps progressively purified the transforming principle by washing away, separating out, or enzymatically destroying the other cellular components
  • These results all pointed to DNA as the likely transforming principle but Avery was cautious in interpreting his results
  • He realized that it was still possible that some contaminating substance present in small amounts, not DNA, was the actual transforming principle

3) Experiment done by Hershey and Chase:

  • Hershey and Chase studied bacteriophage, or viruses that attack bacteria
  • The phages they used were simple particles composed of protein and DNA, with the outer structures made of protein and the inner core consisting of DNA
  • Hershey and Chase concluded that DNA, not protein, was injected into host cells and made up the genetic material of the phage

Which of the following is an example of inattentional blindness? Preet accidentally runs into a man walking toward her in the cr
valkas [14]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Inattentional blindness simply refer to failure to see objects staring  at our faces or directly facing us, when our mind is  focused  directly on another object.Thus because Preet's attention was watching for the cars, her attention was diverted with her gave on the cars that she was oblivious of the two menshe bumped into. This is an example of Intentional blindness.

it  may be caused by how attractive or conspicuous the object at focus is,if ths object is attracive the person will be oblivious of other objects around.

the degree of expectation of the individual focusing on the object,How expectant the person is to see the objects will catch the attention why negating others.

The extent of concentration of the individual to focus on the object that is the amount of mental work load on the  brain during focus, will make the particular stimulus to gain attention of the brain , neglecting others.

Gluconeogenesis shares some, but not all, enzymes with the glycolytic pathway. It would appear to be more efficient if both path
viva [34]

Answer:

D) Three of the reaction steps in gluconeogenesis would have prohibitively large, positive free energies if they used glycolytic enzymes for their catalysis.

Explanation:

The glycolytic enzymes catalyze the conversion of glucose to pyruvate, while gluconeogenesis enzymes catalyze the formation of carbohydrates from pyruvate.
