In the classic Meselson and Stahl experiment, E. coli are first grown in 15N-enriched media (0th generation) and, subsequently,

switched to 14N-enriched media. A DNA sample isolated during the first generation of E. coli grown in 14N media is subjected to a centrifugation step in a dense CsCl gradient.
Assuming that replication occurs in a semiconservative fashion, the DNA sample will:____________
a) run as two bands (of equal intensity), one at the same position as a uniformly 15N-labeled DNA, and one at the same position as a uniformly 14N-labeled DNA.
b) run as one band, at the same position as a uniformly 15N-labeled DNA.
c) run as one band, at the same position as a uniformly 14N-labeled DNA.
d) run as one band, at a position expected for a DNA containing a 14N:15N ratio equal to 7.
e) run as one band, at a position expected for a DNA containing a 14N:15N ratio equal to 1.

Answer:

The correct answer is - option e.)

Explanation:

The experiment that was performed by Meselson and Stahl was created to prove that DNA replication is a semiconservative process.

When Bacteria grow on 15N media they incorporate the isotype of nitrogen and after few generations, the culture moved to 14N media where it incorporates as they replicate in semi-conservative mode and one DNA strand comes from the Parent DNA.

The right option for question one is Option (e) Run as one band, at a position expected for DNA containing a 14N:15N ratio equal to 1.

YEAST LAB !13points
Lelechka [254]
As the yeast feeds on the sugar, it produces carbon dioxide. With no place to go but up, this gas slowly fills the balloon.

A very similar process happens as bread rises. Carbon dioxide from yeast fills thousands of balloonlike bubbles in the dough. Once the bread has baked, this is what gives the loaf its airy texture.

Kelley used to do three sets of squats one time per week. after three weeks she noticed she was less sore than when she started
Lemur [1.5K]

The principle underlying this change is called progression. This principle tells us that when your fitness level improves, your body has adjusted to your regular routine; thus, you will feel less sore than when you started the squats three weeks ago. During this time, your muscles have developed<span> and your body has adopted to the stress brought about by your exercise. </span>
