Answer:

Griffith concluded that in the presence of the dead S-type pneumococcus cells, some of the living R-type cells had been transformed into virulent S cells. These cells were able to grow in the bodies of the mice, causing pneumonia and multiplying in the blood. ... The DNA alone caused bacterial transformation.

Griffith introduced heat-killed 'S'- strain bacteria Streptococcus in to a mouse along with live 'R' strain bacteria. ... Some 'transforming principle' transferred from the heat-killed 'S' strain had enabled the 'R' strain to synthesise a smooth polysaccharide coat and become virulent.

In this experiments, Griffith injected mice in the lab with live R-type of bacteria. They did not suffer from the disease. ... He thus concluded that heat-killed smooth type bacterial caused a transformation of the living rough type bacteria. This experiment suggested that DNA and not proteins are the genetic material.

Answer:

4. transforming the energy in glucose and related molecules in a chemical form that cells can use for work

Explanation:

Glycolysis breaks down glucose into two molecules of pyruvate which is transformed into acetyl CoA to enter the Kreb's cycle. Kreb's cycle breakdown the acetyl CoA into CO2 and H2O. The energy stored in the glucose molecule is released during glycolysis and Kreb's cycle. The released energy is stored in the form of NADH and FADH2 as well as in few molecules of ATP.

The NADH and FADH2 enter the final step of cellular respiration, the oxidative phosphorylation. Here, NADH and FADH2 are oxidized with the help of electron transport chain (ETC). During the transfer of electrons through ETC, the proton motive force is generated which then helps in ATP synthesis.

Hence, the three steps of cellular respiration (glycolysis + Kreb's cycle + oxidative phosphorylation) retrieve the energy from nutrients such as glucose and store it in the form of ATP. ATP is used by cells as an energy source for various other functions.
