Results when heat killed disease causing bacteria were injected into mice
Result when proteins were destroyed
What is transformation occurred
Radioactively labeled substance found mostly in DNA
Purpose of using salt
What is to keep the proteins separate from the detergent
The formal name for DNA
What is deoxyribonucleic acid
Results when harmless bacteria + heat killed disease causing bacteria were injected
What is the mice died of pneumonia
Result when DNA was destroyed
What is bacterial transformation did not occur
Purpose of the experiment
What is to determine which part of a virus enters a bacterial cell
Substance in which DNA is insoluble

The three functions of DNA
What are to store, transmit and copy information
Conclusion established by Griffith
Bacterial transformation can occur
Avery's conclusion
What is that DNA is the transforming factor
Conclusion of the experiment
What is that DNA enters the bacterial and the viral protein coat stays outside
Functions for which strawberries need DNA
What are photosynthesis, water absorption and metabolism
