Bacteria break down (or decompose) dead organisms, animal waste, and plant litter to obtain nutrients. But microbes don't just eat nature's waste, they recycle it. The process of decomposition releases chemicals (such as carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorus) that can be used to build new plants and animals.
Answer:
The bacterial pellet would have contained both isotopes, making it unclear which substance was the genetic material.
Explanation:
Bacteriophages are viruses that infect bacteria, those of the even T series (T2, T4 and T6). Hershey and Chase work with viruses that attack the enterobacteria Escherichia coli. Bacteriophages consisting of DNA viruses with a protein coat (capsid)
The infection process is that the virus injects its DNA into the bacteria. This viral DNA is inserted into the bacteria's DNA, which begins to make new copies (offspring) of the virus. After 25 minutes of injecting the DNA, the bacteria (host cell) explode, releasing hundreds of new bacteriophages. Since phages have only DNA and proteins, they were the appropriate tool to reveal the chemical nature of the hereditary material.
In 1952, Hershey and Chase designed an experience to find out if the inheritance was communicated by DNA or by proteins. They used radioactive labeling techniques to build two different types of phage populations (both T2). A population of phages grew in a medium containing the radioactive isotope S35. The S35 marks the proteins that contain the amino acids cysteine or methionine and therefore this population contains radioactive proteins and not radioactive DNA, since the DNA does not contain sulfur. The second population of virus grew in a medium containing P32. P32 marks nucleic acids, but not proteins, so that this population contains radioactive DNA and non-radioactive proteins. Both types of viruses were used separately to infect susceptible E. coli cells.
Answer:
1. law of Independent Assortment; metaphase I; independent of.
2. law of Segregation; meiosis I; in separate gametes.
Explanation:
Between 1856 and 1863, Gregor Mendel developed a series of mating experiments using pea plants, which enabled the discovery of some basic principles of inheritance. These principles/laws are stated as:
1) Law of segregation: this principle states that the inheritance pattern of phenotypic traits is characterized by the presence of a gene pair and each gamete carries only one allele for each gene pair so offspring inherit one gene variant (allele) from each parent
2) Law of independent assortment: this principle states that the genes responsible for the inheritance pattern of different traits are independently sorted from one another and thereby different traits are independent one from another.
3) Law of dominance: this principle states that the dominant allele will always be expressed in heterozygous individuals (this law is only applicable in cases of complete dominance).
The cell grows, makes a copy of its DNA, and prepares to divide into 2 cells.
Or for APEX---->The chromosomes are duplicated or the cells prepare for mitosis
The cell prepares for mitosis.
Organelles are manufactured(apex)
