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.

If the receptor on the postsynaptic membrane binds to norepinephrine, the synapse is called:__________

Delvig [45]

According to the research, if the receptor on the postsynaptic membrane binds to norepinephrine, the synapse is called adrenergic.

<h3>What is the adrenergic synapse?</h3>

It is the molecular complex that selectively receives the signal of adrenaline and noradrenaline in the body's cells.

It is involved in various functions of the sympathetic nervous system, which involves fight and flight responses.

Therefore, we can conclude that according to the research, if the receptor on the postsynaptic membrane binds to norepinephrine, the synapse is called adrenergic.

Which is not one of darwin's four main ideas of natural selection?

tiny-mole [99]

The answer is letter A. evolution always improves organisms. Darwin did not state this idea because he observed that even if evolution happened to species, there were some species that failed to adopt on the new environment. The other choices are his ideas of natural selection which states that an organism can survive if it has heritable traits that can adopt with the environment.
