What is the explanation of why avery, macleod, and mccarty's in vitro transformation experiment showed that dna, but not rna or
astraxan [27]

The Griffith's experiment, the Avery-MacLeod-McCarty experiment, and the  Hershey–Chase experiments were the set of experiments that established DNA as the key hereditary molecule. The Avery-MacLeod-McCarty experiment was an extension to the Griffith's experiment. The heat killed virulent S strain cells of the Griffith's experiment were lysed to form a supernatant containing a mix of RNA, DNA, proteins and lipids from the cell. The supernatent was equally divided into 3 parts after the removal of the lipids. The 3 parts were respectively treated with an RNAase to degrade the RNA, DNAase to degrade the DNA and proteinase to degrade the proteins. The treated supernatant was then added into the culture containing the non-virulent R cells. In case of the supernatant treated with the DNAse, no transformation of R cells into S cells occurred. The transformation of R cells to S cells occurred in the proteinase and the RNAse cases. This indicated that DNA was the hereditary molecule and not protein or RNA.

When the pulmonologist discusses the condition in which a series of alveoli in the left lower lobe receive adequate ventilation
Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

b. Alveolar dead space

This is because, this is the name of the condition being described by the pulmonologist. It is the sum of the volumes of the alveoli that are ventilated but not perfused due to almost no blood flowing through their pulmonary capillaries.

How to identify oxygen and carbon dioxide?<br>​
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

Place a glowing splint in the test tube, and if it reignites, it could be oxygen. Place a burning splint into a test tube, and if it goes out, it could be carbon dioxide. Or, place carbon dioxide gas in limewater, and if it turns milky and gets chunks, it is carbon dioxide.

What heats up the fastest (in order) wet sand, rock, water, dry sand
dedylja [7]
The specific heat capacity represents the amount of energy, in joules, that it takes to raise the temperature of one gram of a given substance by one degree Celsius. Put more simply, the amount of energy it takes to raise a quantity of water by one degree Celsius would raise an equivalent quantity of sand by a little over 14 degrees. Likewise, sand does not need to lose nearly as much energy as water to produce equivalent cooling. Since it "holds" a lot less energy, it cools down much faster than sand.
Indeed, liquid water has an unusually high specific heat capacity. Because it is much less prone to temperature swings than other common substances, large bodies of water often work to moderate temperatures in a region. This helps to explain, for example, why average temperatures fluctuate very little over the year in San Francisco, a city whose climate is heavily influenced by the water that nearly surrounds it.
