Griffith's experiment worked with two types of pneumococcal bacteria (a rough type and a smooth type) and identified that a "transforming principle" could transform them from one type to another.
At first, bacteriologists suspected the transforming factor was a protein. The "transforming principle" could be precipitated with alcohol, which showed that it was not a carbohydrate. But Avery and McCarty observed that proteases (enzymes that degrade proteins) did not destroy the transforming principle. Neither did lipases (enzymes that digest lipids). Later they found that the transforming substance was made of nucleic acids but ribonuclease (which digests RNA) did not inactivate the substance. By this method, they were able to obtain small amounts of highly purified transforming principle, which they could then analyze through other tests to determine its identity, which corresponded to DNA.
This is false. The nucleus of a cell stores the DNA and controls the cell’s action, but chromatin is the protein in the nucleus that folds DNA into tiny packages.
Answer: It would probably be A.
Explanation: Abrasion means scraping or wearing away. Therefore the correct sample is probably going to look smaller, smoother, and more even from all the scraping of the river currents.
Hope that helps!
