Transformation of nonvirulent cells with a DNA extract was blocked only if protease was added. Transformation of nonvirulent cells with a DNA extract was blocked only if RNase was added.

The major contribution made by Avery, MacLeod, and McCarty was 'transformation of nonvirulent cells with a DNA extract was blocked only if DNase was added'. This observation supported the idea that the transforming agent in Griffith's experiment was DNA.

The Avery–MacLeod–McCarty experiment showed that DNA was the transforming agent observed in Griffith's experiment.

Griffith's experiment (1928) suggested that bacteria were capable of transferring genetic information (DNA) by a process of horizontal gene transfer called transformation.

While the bacteria were killed by heat, Frederick Griffith observed that the DNA had was taken up by II-R strain bacteria via transformation.

Avery–MacLeod–McCarty experiment observed that protease enzymes did not destroy the transforming agent (but DNAse destroyed this transforming principle), thereby suggesting that the transforming agent in Griffith's experiment was bacterial DNA.

Cells are often ground up with abrasive to get to their internal enzymes/molecules, followed by removal of the abrasives. Here a
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

Option (1).

Explanation:

The RNA is produced from the DNA by the process known as translation. The proteins products are produced from the RNA by the process known as translation. Proteins are the polymers of the amino acids.

The situation 1, radioactive amino acids has been used. In this case, the mRNA is used in this process to make the radioactive proteins by the process of translation. The radioactive amino acids are used for the formation of radioactive protein. The situation 2, the RNAase has used with radioactive amino acids. In this case, the RNAse enzyme breaks the mRNA molecule and the proteins are not translated that contains the radioactive amino acids. No proteins formation occurs in this case.

Thus, the correct answer is option (1).
