This questions seems like its missing other parts
Hi,
Harshey and Chase did a great experimentation which was basically a two step experiment to prove that DNA and not proteins are the actual carriers of genetic information from parents to offspring.
- In the first part of their experiment, they used bacteriophages (virus that eat bacteria). They used radioactively labeled sulphur(35S) medium to grow bacteriophages and observed that all the bacteriophages had proteins with radioactive sulphur(35S).
- In the next step they allowed these phages to infect bacteria and to their surprise, they found that the bacteria did not had radioactively labeled sulphur in them because the coat of bacteriophage stays outside the body of bacteria when it attacks it. This proved that DNA not proteins were the hereditary material.
- To make their results more reliable, they did a second experimentation in which, they marked the DNA of the phage with radioactive phosphorus 32P. After labeling DNA, they repeated the same experiment and this time, they found radioactive phosphorus inside the bacteria.
<em>This meant that the bacteria had DNA of phage entered inside them and this again proved that DNA not proteins are the hereditary material. You can see attached image for better understanding.

Hope it help!
Answer:
True
Explanation:
Spinal nerve divides into several branches after passing through its intervertebral foramen. These branches are called rami. A spinal nerve gives off several branches such as anterior ramus, posterior ramus, rami communicantes, and a meningeal branch. The meningeal branch reenters the vertebral cavity through the intervertebral foramen. It serves to supply the vertebrae, vertebral ligaments as well as the blood vessels of the spinal cord, and meninges.
Answer:
DNA is present as genetic material in all the living organism except some virus. DNA structure follows the Chargaff's rule in which states that the ratio of pyrimidines to purines is equal to 1.
So, amount of adenine will be equal to thymine. If adenine is 30% then thymine is also 30%. Total amount of DNA is 100%. Cytosine and thymine are also equal in the DNA molecule. The total amount of cytosine and guanine is 40%. The amount of cytosine is 20% and the amount of guanine is also 20%.
Thus, thymine is 30%, cytosine is 20% and guanine is 20%.
Answer:
True
Explanation:
The color of the baby's eyes is influenced by the genetic inheritance (of the genes transmitted by the mother and father) and the amount of melanin (brown or black pigment whose type and amount is encoded in the genes) found in the iris.
Eye color is controlled by at least three genes, although researchers still only understand the role of two of them. Determining eye color is an extremely complex process and there are several conditioning factors and genetic combinations that can influence the final color.
The more melanin, the darker the color of eyes, skin and hair. If parents have both brown eyes, it is natural for their children to have the same color. However, there may be a genetic influence from an ancestor and the child expressing a different color.
If the presence of melanin in the iris is reduced, the baby will have blue eyes, even if father and mother have brown eyes. If the presence of melanin is higher, the eye color will be green or hazel. When there is a large production of melanin, the eyes are brown, predominant color over green or blue and therefore more common. The least common color is green.
