Answer:

The correct answer is - transformation.

Explanation:

Griffith's experiment was performed by Fredrick Griffith with Streptococcus pneumoniae. Streptococcus P. are rough non encapsulated streptococci that are converted into smooth encapsulated streptococci bacteria in presence of heat-killed smooth encapsulated bacteria.

This experiment was the first experiment that showed that this bacteria can get DNA by the process of transformation.

He suggested that the nonencapsulated bacteria had been transformed into the encapsulated smooth bacteria strain by the transformation process that was somehow part of the dead encapsulated strain bacteria.

Thus, the correct answer - transformation.

why does frameshift mutation usually cause more defects during protein synthesis than a point mutation
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

I believe this is because the frameshift mutations can affect many amino acids. 

Frame shift mutation is produced by either insertion of deletion of one or more new bases. Since the reading frame begins at the start site, any mRNA produced from mutated DNA sequence will be read out of frame after the point of the insertion or deletion, thus producing a nonsense protein.

Many organisms that live in the rocky intertidal zone are adapted to cling to the rocks to withstand the a. pounding of the wave
worty [1.4K]
The correct option is POUNDING OF THE WAVES.
The intertidal zone in the marine aquatic environment refers to the regions of the foreshore and the seabed, which is exposed to the air at low tide and is submerged at high tide. The living organisms living in this zone are adapted to cling to the rocks in order to avoid been washed away by the waves.
