Avery and DNA (page 289)
Ivan

Yes, Avery, Mc Leod and Mc Carty do thought that genes may be involved in the transformation of non virulent rough Strains of <em>Diplococcus pneumoniae</em> to harmful smooth strained bacteria

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Avery was a Canadian medical researcher who along with other two well known scientists of the contemporary time went for an experiment where he took two strains of bacteria Diplococcus pneumoniae - one is rough and nonvirulent and another is smooth and virulent. For a control run, he injected both the bacteria in separate mice and the expected result was there. Now as he injected heat killed smooth bacteria, the mice survived. But as he injected heat killed smooth bacteria with rough bacteria, although there was no organism which can kill the mice the mice died. And autopsy revealed the presence of live smooth bacteria in the lungs.

Thus they suspected something have gone from the dead smooth bacteria into the non virulent rough bacteria which lead to transformation of the rough bacteria to smooth ones. Thus, the experiment was carried on, which suspected role of genes in this transformation.

Which term best describes the movement of water molecules in and out of a cell
stiv31 [10]

The movement of water molecules in and out of a cell is called osmosis.

Osmosis, or the diffusion of water molecules, is when water molecules flow in or out of a cell from high to low concentrations (down their concentration gradient). The ultimate goal of osmosis is to establish equilibrium between the cell and its outer environment.

Hope this helps!
