DNA experiments
These organisms were the test subjects in Griffith's experiment
What are mice?
full name of DNA
What is deoxyribonucleic acid?
used radioactive elements
Who are Hershey/Chase?
What is store, copy & transmit information?
This is crucial to DNA replication as it separates the 2 sides of the molecule
What is helicase?
What is R strain?
What is cytosine?
goal of their experiment was to pinpoint the molecule responsible for transformation
Who was Avery?
radioactive isotopes used in DNA experiments
role of lipase
What is digests lipids?
the technique Franklin used to purify a sample of DNA in her experiments
What is x-ray diffraction?
bonding that exists between the bases of DNA
What is hydrogen bonding?
mixed different strains of bacteria & injected them into mice and observed transformation
Who was Griffith?
specific kind of virus used to digest bacteria
What is a bacteriophage?
nucleases are responsible for removing these portions from the bacterial mixture in Avery's experiment
What is RNA & DNA?
the conclusion of Hershey & Chase experiment
What is DNA is found in all cells?
antiparallel
What is direction of DNA?
explained/discovered base pairing
Who are Watson/Crick?
portion of DNA that contains nitrogen
What is the bases A,G,T, C?
this enzyme is responsible for making sure the DNA codes in the new strand is correctly paired
What is polymerase?
An isotope of this element was used in the experiments performed by Hershey/Chase because a form of the element is found in DNA
What is phosphorus?
The % of thymine found in a sample of DNA that is known to have 6 percent guanine
What is 44 %?
discovered that a molecule of DNA was a helix
dependent variable from Avery's experiment
What is transformation?
What are carbohydrates?
