The Hershey–Chase experiment was based on a bacteriophage T2 (a virus), to that DNA is the genetic material. Bacteriophage T2 attacks bacterium and makes its copies. Based on the experiment, Hershey and Chase deduced that it is the DNA of virus enters bacteria to make virus copies. To trace viral DNA, Hershey and Chase label DNA with ³²P (radioisotope of phosphorus) because phosphorus is not present in most of the proteins.

Answer:

The correct answer is- Radioactive phosphorus 32

Explanation:

Harshey and chase labeled the T2 bacteriophage capsid with radioactive sulfur 35 and DNA of T2 bacteriophage with radioactive phosphorus 32. After infecting E.coli with the T2 bacteriophage it was seen that radioactive phosphorus was found inside the cell, not radioactive sulfur.

As phosphorus is found prominently in DNA, not protein, therefore, it was concluded that DNA is the genetic material that passed from T2 phage to bacteria, not protein.

Therefore the material that entered E.coli upon T2 bacteriophage infection was DNA which was labeled with a radioactive isotope of phosphorus.

What distinguishes surface and body seismic waves?
siniylev [52]
Answer:
Seismic waves are the wave form of energy that travels through the earth’s layer and they are produced as a result of earthquake, magma movement, volcanic eruptions, land slides and large man- made explosions.
There are two types of seismic waves: body waves and surface waves. Body waves travel through the interiors of the earth. Surface waves travels only through the interface between earth and the atmosphere.

What food allows bacteria to grow well?.
NemiM [27]

The temperature control for safety (TCS) food items like dairy products, eggs, meat, and poultry support the growth of bacteria, hence ideal for bacterial growth.

Foods that are more likely to become dangerous are referred to as TCS food. TCS food, in contrast to other foods, requires time and temperature controls to prevent the growth of bacteria. This cuisine has a pH that is either slightly acidic or neutral, contains protein, and is wet. Water is necessary for bacteria to break down the food they ingest in order to proliferate. Water that is not attached to food molecules can promote the growth of bacteria. Water activity or water availability refers to this unbound water. To grow, all bacteria require nutrients or an energy source. Carbohydrates, protein, sugar, and starch are a few nutrients. Milk and dairy products typically include a lot of nutrients, which makes them perfect for bacterial growth.

John can roll his tongue and is heterozygous for this dominant trait (Rr). John’s second toe is shorter than his first. His wife
Feliz [49]

Answer:

       rT       rt

Rt    RrTt     Rrtt

rt     rrtt        rrtt

25% chances for the genotype to be heterozygous roll tongue and heterozygous longer second toe.

25% chances for the genotype to be heterozygous roll tongue and homozygous short toe.

50% chances for the genotype to be  homozygous recessive no roll tongue and homozygous recessive short toe.

Phenotypes would be 25% tongue roll with longer toe. 25% tongue roll with shorter toe. 50% no tongue roll,shorter toe.
