As a scientist, you seek to prove that DNA is the hereditary macromolecule by replicating the Hershey-Chase experiment. You cult

ure the lambda phage in heavy and light Cl (Cl-36 is heavy and radioactive - the most abundant is Cl-35, lighter and non-radioactive). You purify the phage from their growth media and infect the E. coli, where will you detect radioactivity?
Select one:
a. Within the E. coli pellet as the DNA has entered the bacterial cells.
b. On the E. coli cell surface (or phage fraction), as part of the phage protein coat.
c. In the supernatent (free liquid) of your test tube
d. Both A and B
e. None of the above
Why is the answer none of the above? Why cant the radioactivity be detected?

Answer:

The correct answer is option e. "None of the above".

Explanation:

The Hershey-Chase experiment helped to prove that DNA was the genetic material, by specifically labeling the DNA material of a bacteriophage with phosphorus-32. In this experiment the lambda phage is labeled with heavy and light Cl. CI-36, the one that is heavy and radioactive, corresponds to Chlorine-36. Chlorine is not an element found in DNA such as phosphorus, therefore lambda DNA will not be labeled and no radioactivity will be detected.

Which technology is used to adjust the load connected to solar cells and increase their energy output?
shutvik [7]

Answer:

C. Maximum power point tracking.

Explanation:

A. Direct current: It is also called DC in which  electric current flows consistently in one direction.It is used in batteries and cells.It is not used in solar system .Therefore, it is false.

B. Alternating current : It is also called AC . The AC is used in domestic electricity.The current in which direction of electron is reversed after at regular intervals .It is not used for solar cells.Hence, it is false.

C. Maximum power point tracking:It is also called power point tracking. It is used in   charge control in solar cells.it is a technique which is used to extracting maximum available power from PV  ( photovoltaic cells) solar system.It is a technique that is used to adjust load connected to solar cells and increase their energy output.Therefore, it is true.

D. Electromagnetic induction:It is a process for producing EMF due to change in magnetic field. It is not used in solar system. Therefore, it is false.

Answer:C. Maximum power point tracking.

quizlet i]n the heart, valves are located in the heart, valves are located just between the ventricles and the arteries. just be
ser-zykov [4K]

In the heart, the valves are located between atria and ventricles and between ventricles and arteries (option D).

<h3>What are valves in the heart?</h3>

Valves are membranous partitions which permit the passage of the contents of a vessel or cavity in one direction, but stop or control the flow in the opposite direction.

Valves in the heart enforce a one-way blood flow through the heart and separate atria from ventricles, and ventricles from the large arteries that leave them.

The four valves in the heart and their location is as follows:

  1. tricuspid valve: located between the right atrium and the right ventricle
  2. pulmonary valve: located between the right ventricle and the pulmonary artery
  3. mitral valve: located between the left atrium and the left ventricle
  4. aortic valve: located between the left ventricle and the aorta.

The valves between the atria and ventricles are called atrioventricular valves or cuspid valves while those at the bases of the large vessels leaving the ventricles are called semilunar valves.

Therefore, it can be said that the valves of the heart are located between atria and ventricles and between ventricles and arteries.
