1. In Griffith's experiments, what made the harmless R cells grow capsules when
exposed to heat-killed S cells?
ANS DNA
2. In the Hershey-Chase experiment radioactive Sulfur was used to
ANS Be incor- porated into the phage protein coat because some amino acids contain sulfur
3. The experiments by Hershey and Chase helped confirm that DNA was the hereditary
material on the basis of the finding that
