Answer:

In Hershey -Chase experiment , they proved  the physical carrier of inheritance is nucleic acids not proteins.

Explanation:

Hershey- Chase  <em>has proved genetic material is DNA. They experimented on Bacteriophage which are made of proteins and DNA. For this experiment they used radioactive isotopes of element. Phosphorous-32 was used to label the DNA and sulfur -35 was used to label amino acids in proteins.</em>

They found in experiment shortly after attacking on bacteria phage adhere on the surface, <u>inserts its DNA into the host , leaving its protein coat outside</u>. As they did not find any trace of sulfur-35 in the test medium.

after entering host body phage DNA multiplied in several copies. And after that they packed and assembled in protein coat.

After this experiment they concluded that DNA is the physical carrier of inheritance.

The origin of congenital adrenal hyperplasia occurs when circulating cortisol levels
LuckyWell [14K]
The origin of congenital adrenal hyperplasia occurs when circulating cortisol levels are low.
Congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) is an autosomal recessive disease which results from mutations of genes for enzymes involved in the biochemical steps of production of mineralocorticoids, glucocorticoids or sex steroids from cholesterol by the adrenal glands (steroidogenesis). <span>Low cortisol production results in rising levels of ACTH (adrenocorticotropic hormone) because cortisol usually inhibits ACTH production. This increased ACTH production induces overgrowth (hyperplasia) and overactivity of the steroid-producing cells of the adrenal cortex.</span>

How does motion change
seraphim [82]

Answer:

The motion of an object is determined by the sum of the forces acting on it; if the total force on the object is not zero, its motion will change. The greater the mass of the object, the greater the force needed to achieve the same change in motion. For any given object, a larger force causes a larger change in motion.
