3) Two students decided to repeat the Hershey and Chase experiment, with modifications for a science competition. They radioacti

vely tag the nitrogen of the DNA, rather than the phosphate. Each nucleotide has only one phosphate and two to five nitrogen atoms, the strategy of labeling the nitrogen atoms would detect a stronger signal than labeling the phosphates. Why won't this approach work

Answer:

Explanation:

In the Hershey and Chase experiment, they aimed to show where the phage DNA went when it exited the protein coat and entered the bacteria. In this scenario, the two student's approach won't work because amino acids (and therefore all proteins) also have nitrogen atoms which ultimately means that the radioactivity would not distinguish between DNA and proteins and the experiment will not provide the correct results.

What was marshall nirenberg and heinrich matthaeis contribution to our current understanding of the genetic code?
Julli [10]
Marshall Nirenberg and Heinrich Mattaeis contributed to out current understanding of the genetic code by discovering genetic codons. Their experiment deciphered the first of the 64 triplet codons in the genetic code by using nucleic acid homopolymer to translate specific amino acids. Their experiment cracked the first codon of the genetic code and showed that RNA controlled the production of certain types of proteins.<span />

Consider the terms egg, sperm, and sporophyte. Which term links egg and sperm directly to sporophyte?
NARA [144]

Answer:

Explanation:

La fecundación es el proceso por el cual dos gametos (masculino y femenino) se fusionan durante la reproducción sexual para crear un cigoto con un genoma derivado de ambos progenitores. Los dos fines principales de la fecundación son la combinación de genes derivados de ambos progenitores y la generación de un cigoto.

En el caso de las plantas con semillas pros, hay que diferenciar el fenómeno de la fecundación propiamente dicho (unión íntima de dos células sexuales hasta confundirse sus núcleos respectivos y, en mayor o menor grado, sus citoplasmas),1​ del proceso biológico que lo antecede: la polinización, en el que los granos de polen, desarrollados en las tecas que contiene cada antera de un estambre (hoja reproductora masculina), son transportados por el viento o los insectos a los estigmas, donde germinan emitiendo un tubo polínico que crece hacia el ovario. En este caso no se trata de gametos, sino de esporas, pues cada grano de polen contiene dos gametos o células reproductoras masculinas
