1. Griffith in his experiment used two related strains of bacteria (Streptococcus pneumonia), known as R and S and mice, trying to develop a vaccine against pneumonia. R strain-formed nonvirulent, rough-edged colonies
S strain- rounded and smooth colonies, with sugar protection coat, virulent
Mice that were injected with S strain developed pneumonia and died.
But, when mice were injected with heat-killed S strain it did not cause disease in mice.
The next part of experiment is the injection of combined harmless R bacteria with harmless heat-killed S bacteria. The result was that the mouse developed pnenumonia and in blood sample from the dead mouse, living S bacteria were found.
2. From his experiment, Griffith concluded that injected together, R strain and S strain bacteria most likely “communicate”. The R-strain bacteria took "transforming principle" (we know today that this is genetic material DNA) from the heat-killed S bacteria which allowed them to "transform" into virulent bacteria.
B) the usable energy source for all cells
B. is a protective structure made of cellulose fibrils

Answer:
protiens
Explanation:
Proteins, among the most complex of all organic compounds, are composed of amino acids which contain carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and nitrogen atoms.
