The Griffith's experiment, the Avery-MacLeod-McCarty experiment, and the Hershey–Chase experiments were the set of experiments that established DNA as the key hereditary molecule. The Avery-MacLeod-McCarty experiment was an extension to the Griffith's experiment. The heat killed virulent S strain cells of the Griffith's experiment were lysed to form a supernatant containing a mix of RNA, DNA, proteins and lipids from the cell. The supernatent was equally divided into 3 parts after the removal of the lipids. The 3 parts were respectively treated with an RNAase to degrade the RNA, DNAase to degrade the DNA and proteinase to degrade the proteins. The treated supernatant was then added into the culture containing the non-virulent R cells. In case of the supernatant treated with the DNAse, no transformation of R cells into S cells occurred. The transformation of R cells to S cells occurred in the proteinase and the RNAse cases. This indicated that DNA was the hereditary molecule and not protein or RNA.
The main benefit of crossing over is that it increases genetic diversity.
<h2>
Crossing over and
Genetic Diversity</h2>
Crossing over ensures that the daughter cells produced are genetically more diverse than their parent cells.
The exchange of chromosomal segments makes the chromosomes of the daughter cells to be more sophisticated than that of their parents.
Increased genetic diversity in daughter cells increases their chances of survival as more genes are present in their genomes that could potentially make them more adaptable to the environment.
In summary, crossing over increases genetic diversity and genetic diversity increases the chances of survival in the face of changing environment.

Answer: The temperature of the rainforest does not experience a drastic fall as in the case of the desert.
Explanation:
In the desert the average daytime temperature remains 100°F and that of the rainforest is 85°F. But average monthly temperatures are lower in the case of desert as compared to the rainforest although the vegetation cover is higher in rainforest as compared to desert so humidity is also more. During night in desert temperature drops to an average of 25°F whereas in rainforest during night temperature level does not drop much it drops to only 71°F. Therefore, the average monthly temperature on desert is lower than rainforest.
Well there are 4 things in a dna molecule and that is adenine guanine thymine and cytosine well the DNA molecule keeps the cell moving in the right direction and also helps the cell reproduce and stay healthy
