Answer:

The mice died

Explanation:

In Griffith's experiment, two strains of the same bacteria were used. S strain was smooth because it had a polysaccharide coat. This coat also made it virulent because mouse immune system was not able to destroy it and ultimately the mice died. R strain was rough because it did not have the coat and thus was harmless to mice.

When Griffith injected mice with dead S bacteria and living R bacteria together, the mice died. Live R bacteria had taken up the genetic material or as Griffith called "transforming principle" from the dead S bacteria and transformed into S bacteria. So live S bacteria were present again and they killed the mice.

Which is a correct statement of Newton's second law?
SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

When an object experiences a net force, it will accelerate at a rate determined by its mass

Explanation:

A body at rest is considered to have a zero speed, so any force causing the body to move is an unbalanced force and any force causing the body to slow down is also an unbalanced force. An unbalanced force cause acceleration or deceleration i.e a change in speed

charle [14.2K]
Long ears have to be dominant:

If this IS true then these would be your 'parents':

L = long ears
l = curly ears

LL x ll

If you cross the homozygous recessive curly eared rabbit (ll) with homozygous dominant long eared rabbit (LL) you would get 100% Ll - all would look long eared.
