As we have mentioned before each radioactive isotope has its own decay pattern. Not only does it decay by giving off energy and matter, but it also decays at a rate that is characteristic to itself. The rate at which a radioactive isotope decays is measured in half-life. The term half-life is defined as the time it takes for one-half of the atoms of a radioactive material to disintegrate. Half-lives for various radioisotopes can range from a few microseconds to billions of years. See the table below for a list of radioisotopes and each of unique their half-lives.

For a science fair project, two students decided to repeat the Hershey and Chase experiment, with modifications. They decided to
posledela

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-E

Explanation:

Hershey and Chase's experiment was performed to test whether DNA serves as the genetic material or protein.

To perform experiment they grew bacteriophage into radiolabeled phosphorus and sulfur compounds. The phosphorus is an integral part of the structure of DNA whereas proteins contain sulfur in their structure.  

In the given condition if radiolabeled nitrogen is utilized then the experiment will fail as the structure of proteins also contains an amino group( NH₂) in their structure as well as DNA. The scientist will not be able to identify whether the DNA is the genetic material or protein.

Thus, option-E is the correct answer.
