Avery and his colleagues thought that the molecule required in transformation might also be the molecule of the gene?
True
Oswald Avery and his colleagues showed that the transforming agent in Griffith's experiments was?
DNA
What did Avery's experiments show that transformation?
DNADNA
What did the result of Avery's experiments show about the elements that cause transformation?
DNA
How did Avery discover that the material responsible for transformation in bacteria ws DNA?
A series of experiments showed that the activity of the material responsible for transformation was stopped by a DNA destroying enzyme. DNA had the instructions for making the capsule in the S. Strain of S. pneumoniae. I hope this helps!!
Avery and his colleagues thought that the molecule required in transformation might also be the molecule of the gene?
True
What did Avery conclude cause transformation?
Avery concluded that DNA is the molecule that changed bacteria.
Briefly describe how Avery and his group determined which molecules was most important for transformation?
Avery and his colleagues made an extract, or juice, from the heat-killed bacteria. They then carefully treated the extract with enzymes that destroyed proteins, lipids, carbohydrates, and other molecules, including the RNA. Transformation still occurred. Obviously, since these molecules had been destroyed, they were not responsible for the transformation. Your welcome:)
How did Avery and his group determine which molecule was most important for what transformation?
HE combined his findings with that of other prominent researchers like Frederick Griffith.
How was Avery and his group determined which molecule was most important for transformation?
Avery and his group created an extract from bacteria that had been killed by heat and then used enzymes to destroy RNA, carbohydrates, lipids, proteins and other such molecules. Because transformation still occurred, they were able to isolate the molecules vital to the process.
Oswald Avery and his colleagues showed that the transforming agent in Griffith's experiments was?
DNA
What did Avery's experiments show that transformation?
DNADNA
What was the hypothesis in the Avery Macleod and McCarthy DNA experiment?
Avery and his colleagues wanted to isolate the active chemical responsible for the transformation principle (genes) and group it into a known group of chemicals (proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, polysaccharides...) or at least find out its basic chemical properties. So it could maybe be formulated as follows: "What is the active chemical inducing transformation of Pneumococci Type II to Pneumococci Type III in previously outlined experiments?" Therefore, the null-hypothesis would be: "Which chemical substances can be excluded from being responsible for inducing this transformation?"
What did the result of Avery's experiments show about the elements that cause transformation?
DNA
What did Avery's experiments add to the knowledge gained from Griffith's experiments?
American biologist Oswald Avery and his colleagues took Griffith's experiments one step further. To test whether protein was the transforming factor, they treated Griffith's mixture of heat-treated deadly strain and live harmless strain with protein-destroying enzymes. The bacterial colonies grown from the mixture were still transformed. Avery and his colleagues concluded that protein could not be the transforming factor.
Who were Avery McCarthy Macleod and oswald?
They were three Scientists whom confirmed the active role of DNA in cell transformation.
Did Avery brooks go to Robert urich's funeral?
There is no public record or confirmation that Avery Brooks attended Robert Urich's funeral. Brooks and Urich were colleagues in the entertainment industry, but no information suggests their relationship extended to attending funerals.
