The first experiments that correctly identified the molecule that carries genetic information were performed by Oswald Avery.

Option: A

Explanation:

One of the top molecular biologists and well experienced in immunochemistry popular as Oswald Avery, who worked with his colleagues Colin MacLeod and Maclyn McCarty and resulted into most famous study authored by them in 1944, it involves separation of DNA as the material from which genes and chromosomes are produced. He proved DNA was the essence of transformation. DNA was able to convert another strain when isolated from one strain of bacteria, and impart features on that second strain and these DNA contain hereditary knowledge.

An object with a kinetic energy of 200 J and Potential energy of 300 J, has a mechanical energy of what?

True [87]

Answer:

500 J

Explanation:

Emechanical=U+K,i.e., the mechanical energy Emechanical is the sum of the potential energy U and kinetic energy K.

So, the object has a mechanical energy of 200+300=500 J.

Together, inhalation and exhalation are referred to as ________. together, inhalation and exhalation are referred to as ________

Gennadij [26K]

Together, inhalation and exhalation are referred to as breathing. Inhalation is the process of breathing where air moves into the lungs through the nose and the mouth. This causes an increase in the volume of air in the lungs, meaning the pressure will decrease, thus the air then moves to the lungs. Exhalation on the other hand is the flow of the breath out of an organism, for example in humans it is the movement of air from the lungs out of the airways, to the external environment during breathing.
