Discovery
               In 1928 it was discovered by Frederick Griffith in an experiment generally known as transformation.

Experiment
                 
 In his experiment he considered two strains of <em>streptococus pneumonia,</em> one was R-type which was non-virulent and cause no disease in mice, other was virulent and S-type which cause disease and at last death of mice.
This experiment was comprised of four steps which are as follow:

 Step 1:
           First he injected living strain of S into mice, after sometime mouce died.

Step 2:
          He injected living strain of R into mice, the mice alive as he did not got any disease.

Step 3:
         He injected heat killed strain of S into mice and mice remain alive.

Step 4:
           He mixed living R strain with heat killed S strain and then inject into mice. As a result the mice died.

Conclusion:
                  It was found that genetic material from heat killed S stain were transferred to living R (non-virulent) strain, as a result R become virulent and cause the death of mice.

Answer:

Diversity of the community = 2.097

Explanation:

Given:

Number of pitch pines = 134

Number of douglas firs = 24

Number of red pines = 53

Find:

Diversity of the community

Computation:

Simpson's diversity index = N(N-1)/Σn(n-1)

Particular              n n(n-1)

Pitch pine         134       17822

Douglas firs       24 552

Red pine            53  2756

Total       N=211 21130

So,

D= [211(211-1)] / 21130

D = 2.097

Diversity of the community = 2.097

As a result of the non-selectivity of the kidney's filtration of small molecules, _____. see concept 44.4 (page 986)
kondor19780726 [428]
As a result of the non-selectivity of kidney's filtration of small molecules, useful substances must be selectively reabsorbed to the blood.  Filtration is the mass movement of water and solutes from plasma to the renal tubule that occurs in the renal corpuscle. About 20% of the plasma volume passing through the glomerulus at any given time is filtered. Glomerulus lets fluid and waste products pass through it, however, it prevents blood cells and large molecules, mostly proteins, from passing.
