Answer:
They used radioactive labeling techniques to build two different types of phage.
Explanation:
In 1952, a set of experiments were carried out by American biochemists Alfred D. Hershey (1908-1997) and Martha Chase. They prepared two separate virus samples, one contained DNA labeled with a radioactive isotope and the other contained protein labeled with a different radioactive isotope. They grew the two types of viruses separately, infected bacteria with the two sets of phages and analyzed the bacteria for radioactivity. From the results obtained, Hershey and Chase concluded that the viral genetic material was DNA and not protein, reinforcing the observations previously made by Avery.
Answer:
B. "Whispered pectoriloquy" - "speaking from the chest"; used as a means of finding masses in the lung. The whispered word is audible in areas where fluid or a mass is present
Explanation:
Auscultation in medicine, is the action of listening to sounds from the heart, lungs, or other organs, usually using a stethoscope, in order to perform medical diagnosis.
Auscultation is performed for the purposes of examining the circulatory and respiratory systems, as well as the alimentary canal. The procedure is best performed in a quiet examination room. A stethoscope is used to magnify internal sounds. Small changes in breath sounds are carefully observed in order to make a diagnosis.
Whispered pectoriloquy is used to detect vocal resonance. It is used as a means of finding masses (consolidations e.g. pus) in the lung and is performed by having the patient quietly whisper a word. If fluid or a mass is present, words that are whispered may be heard clearly.
Answer:
The basic function of the light reactions of photosynthesis is the conversion of solar energy to chemical energy.
Explanation:
In photosynthesis, the light energy is captured by chlorophyll pigment which is present in the thylakoid membrane. Then this light energy is used split water which releases the electron that enters the electron transport chain. Then electrons move through several electron carriers and helps to generates NADPH and ATP.
These NADPH and ATP are used in the Calvin cycle to fix the carbon into carbohydrates like glucose. Glucose molecules is then used by the plant to get energy source and to make structural components like cell wall. Therefore during photosynthesis solar energy is converted into chemical energy like glucose.
