Answer:

The correct answer is B.It was necessary that each of the two phage components, DNA and protein, be identifiable upon recovery at the end of the experiment

Explanation:

Hershey and chase in his experiment lebelled the T₂ bacteriophage with radioactive sulfur and radioactive phosphorus separately. Then they infect E.coli with T₂phage and separated phage from bacteria by centrifugation.

Because DNA contains phosphorus not protein, cells infected with phage containing radioactive phosphorous showed radioactivity bacause DNA enters the cell not protein confirming DNA is the genetic material and radioactive sulfur was found in supernatant.

Answer:

Blood cells

In a cross between individuals of a species of tropical fish, all of the male offspring have long tail fins, and none of the fem
Sergio039 [100]

In this cross the trait of long tail fins is associated with the “Y” chromosome of the male.  

Thus the alleles  of the male are represented by XY” where X chromosome has no trait of long tails find  

And the allels of the female are represented by XX, as they do not have long tail fins.  

When these two are crossed , the following punnet square is produced

X     Y”

X X X    X Y”

X X X     X Y”

The XX is the female while the XY” is the male offspring.

-why is respiration important for a cell?
Grace [21]
Respiration is how animal cells get their energy to preform their necessary functions. Plant cells don't use respiration, because they use photosynthesis. Photosynthesis turns light into energy.

Tid-bit of info:
Cellular Respiration Formula:
Sugar + Oxygen = Carbon Dioxide + Water <span>+ ATP </span>
C₆H₁₂O₆ + O₂ = CO₂ + H₂O <span>+ ATP </span>
Photosynthesis Formula: 
Sunlight + Water + Carbon Dioxide = Oxygen + Sugar
Sunlight + H₂O + CO₂ = O₂ + C₆H₁₂O₆
