Matthew Meselson and Franklin Stahl demonstrated that DNA replication is semiconservative in bacteria.Choose the correct descrip

tion of their experiment.A. Meselson and Stahl initially cultured E. coli in medium containing only 15N until all cells contained only 15N/15N DNA. They then cultured the 15N/15N E. coli in normal medium (14N) and collected samples after one, two, and three rounds of DNA replication.B. Meselson and Stahl initially cultured E. coli in medium containing both 14N and 15N until all cells contained only 14N/15N DNA. They then cultured the 14N/15N E. coli in normal medium (14N) and collected samples after one, two, and three rounds of DNA replication.C. Meselson and Stahl initially cultured E. coli in medium containing both 14N and 15N until all cells contained only 14N/15N DNA. They then cultured the 14N/15N E. coli in medium containing only heavy nitrogen (15N) and collected samples after one, two, and three rounds of DNA replication.D. Meselson and Stahl initially cultured E. coli in medium containing only 15N until all cells contained only 15N/15N DNA. They then cultured the 15N/15N E. coli in medium containing both 14N and 15N and collected samples after one, two, and three rounds of DNA replication.

Answer:

Option-A

Explanation:

Meselson and Stahl are known for their experiment which proved that DNA replicates by semiconservative mode of replication.

They selected the E.coli bacteria and grew them in the heavy isotope of Nitrogen that is N¹⁵ and later into the N¹⁴ isotope. Since nitrogen is the constituent of the DNA, therefore, is incorporated into the DNA.

They used the CsCl density centrifugation technique and observed the bands according to the density of nitrogen and reached the conclusion after the third generation that DNA replicates by semiconservative mode.

Thus, Option-A is correct.

Five closely related species of frogs live in ranges that overlap. Some breed in woodland ponds, some in lowland swamps, and som
Anarel [89]

The answers are; geographical isolation and temporal isolation.

In temporal isolation, because the different species have different mating seasons, so even though their habitats overlap, they do not interbreeding is rare. Geographical isolation also plays a role because the different species are found predominantly in different sites during breeding, some in the woodland, some in the lowlands and others in streams.

Describe the components of ATP. What is the purpose of ATP in the cell? How is it recycled?
Brut [27]

Answer:

Adenosine triphosphate or ATP is the energy-providing molecule of the organisms which produce energy during the metabolic process. Therefore this is also considered as the energy currency of the cell.

As a biomolecule, it is made up of three components: a ribose sugar, adenine nitrogenous base and three phosphate groups. Its adenine base is attached to the 9th nitrogen atom of the 1′ carbon of the sugar. and three phosphate group are attached to the 5' carbon atom of the sugar.

High energy is stored in the three phosphate bonds which when broken down to adenosine diphosphate and monophosphate releases energy. New ATP is generated through the process of phosphorylation in mitochondria and chloroplasts in plants. The ATP production reaction is catalyzed by ATP synthase
