The virulent form of the bacteria S. pneumoniae is called the S strain because it is surrounded by a polysaccharide coat that ma

kes it appear smooth under a microscope. Sometimes the S strain mutates into a non-virulent form (called the R strain), which lacks the polysaccharide coat and appears rough. Frederick Griffith performed an experiment in which he injected mice with different combinations of these bacterial strains. Drag the labels to indicate whether the mice live or die after each injection and the explanation for each test result.

Answer:

1. living s strain= mice dies

2. heat killed s strain= mice live

3. living r strain= mice live

4. heat killed s strain + living r strain= mice die

Explanation:

Options

1. living s strain

2. heat killed s strain

3. living r strain

4. heat killed s strain + living r strain

Solution

It is known that S strain of the pneumococcal bacteria has virulent properties and hence it can kill an organism but when this S strain is heated its virulent factor dies and it becomes ineffective. R strain on the other hand does not possess virulent characteristics and hence it does not affect the mice. If R virulent is mixed with heat killed S strain, the new  strain is  transformed virulent strain which could kill an organism.

Considering above description, the answer would be  

1. living s strain= mice dies

2. heat killed s strain= mice live

3. living r strain= mice live

4. heat killed s strain + living r strain= mice die

Which sequence correctly arranges the building blocks of life from largest and most inclusive to smallest and most specific?
netineya [11]

The right answer is chromosome > DNA > gene.

Living cell element, of characteristic shape and in constant number, located in the nucleus of the cell.

DNA, which is our chromosome, carries the genes . The DNA molecule, also known as deoxyribonucleic acid, is found in all our cells.

The gene is a piece of this DNA that corresponds to a particular genetic information that codes for a single protein. So it's a very small portion of chromosome.
