The major contribution made by Avery, MacLeod, and McCarty was 'transformation of nonvirulent cells with a DNA extract was blocked only if DNase was added'. This observation supported the idea that the transforming agent in Griffith's experiment was DNA.
The Avery–MacLeod–McCarty experiment showed that DNA was the transforming agent observed in Griffith's experiment.
Griffith's experiment (1928) suggested that bacteria were capable of transferring genetic information (DNA) by a process of horizontal gene transfer called transformation.
While the bacteria were killed by heat, Frederick Griffith observed that the DNA had was taken up by II-R strain bacteria via transformation.
Avery–MacLeod–McCarty experiment observed that protease enzymes did not destroy the transforming agent (but DNAse destroyed this transforming principle), thereby suggesting that the transforming agent in Griffith's experiment was bacterial DNA.

The answer would be hypotonic
Simple diffusion is the process by which a substance moves across a cell membrane from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration. Substances that move by simple diffusion are able to diffuse directly across the phospholipid bilayer of the cell membrane. These substances are generally small and neutral, as large or charged particles cannot cross the phospholipid bilayer. Some examples of molecules that move by simple diffusion are carbon dioxide and oxygen.
Facilitated diffusion is the process by which a substance moves across a cell membrane from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration with the aid of a membrane protein. Substances that move by facilitated diffusion are not able to diffuse directly across the phospholipid bilayer of the cell membrane. These substances are generally large and/or charged. They therefore travel through a protein channel in the cell membrane along their concentration gradient. Some examples of substances that can move by facilitated diffusion are glucose, sodium ions and chloride ions.
The similarities between facilitated diffusion and simple diffusion are:
They both involve the movement of a substance across a cell membrane along its concentration gradient (from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration).
They are both examples of passive transport, as neither requires energy from the cell to move the substance across the membrane.
