The plant cell's central vacuole provides rigidity by creating turgor pressure.

Answer:

Vacuole

Explanation:

Apart from cell wall, vacuole plays an important role in maintaining rigidity of plant cells. It is a membrane bound fluid filled sac. Vacuole can expand in size greatly.

When the outside environment is hypotonic, plant cell takes in excess of water. This water is taken up by vacuole and it can stretch to fill out around 90% of cell without losing its integrity. The cell is said to be turgid and all other organelles press against the cell wall without facing any damage. The development of this hydrostatic pressure helps to maintain the rigidity of the cell along with cell wall.

Nitrogen and carbon are more abundant in proteins than sulfur. Why did Hershey and Chase use radioactive sulfur instead of nitro
lora16 [44]

Answer:

Hershey and Chase experiment confirms that DNA is the genetic material of the living organism, not the RNA or protein. They also got a noble prize for this discovery.

Hershey and Chase use the radioactive sulfur to label the proteins and distinguish them from the DNA because DNA do not contain sulfur. The radioactive label phosphorus was used to label the DNA as phosphorus is specific to DNA as they wants to know exactly the genetic material. They do not use the radioactive carbon and nitrogen because both carbon and nitrogen are present in DNA and RNA. This labeling may produce confused result as it label both DNA as well as protein. The result o radioactive phosphorus and sulfur determines that DNA is the genetic material of the organism.
