Hershey and chase concluded that the genetic material of the bacteriophage was?
dna(:
Why was Alfred Hershey and Martha Chase's experiment so important?
In their experiments, Hershey and Chase showed that when bacteriophages, which are composed of DNA and protein, infect bacteria, their DNA enters the host bacterial cell, but most of their protein does not. Although the results were not conclusive, and Hershey and Chase were cautious in their interpretation, previous, contemporaneous and subsequent discoveries all served to prove that DNA is the hereditary material.
Who determined DNA was a chemical that contained inherited information?
The assumption of inheritence material was first suggested by Griffith's experiments on diplococcus. Later on in 1944 three scientist; Avery, Macleod, and Mc. Carty repeated the Griffith's experiment and finally Harshey and Chase perform the experiment with bacteriophage and E.coli and prooved that DNA is a genetic material.
What is Chase's rate reduction program?
It is merely a retention program offered by Chase. You have to be in good standing with Chase. You must have received an overnight FedEx package from Chase. The opportunity is good, but shop around to compare.
When was Chase Daniel born?
Chase Daniel was born on October 7, 1986.
The bacteriophage used by Hershey and chase consisted of 2 types of molecules?
DNA and protein
What was used by Hershey and chase in their experiment?
Bacteriophage
What used by hershey and chase in their experiments?
Bacteriophage
Who concluded that the genetis material of a bacteriophage is DNA?
The scientists Alfred Hershey and Martha Chase conducted a series of experiments at the Carnegie Institute of Washington in 1952, and concluded that the genetic material of a bacteriophage was DNA.
Hershey and chase concluded that the genetic material of the bacteriophage was?

Why did Alfred Hershey and Martha Chase chose bacteriophage as their virus?
Because it infects bacteria and uses it as a factory to replicate and create more bacteriophage. T2 Bacteriophage undergoes lytic life cycle and NOT lysogenic life cycle
What result did Hershey and chase observe?
they concluded that the genetic material of the bacteriophage was DNA, not protein
Describe the contributions of hershey and chase to the understanding that DNA is the genetic material?
Hershey and Chase radioactively labelled T2 bacteriophage with P (DNA) and S (protein) to determine if protein or DNA carried the genetic material. They let the bacteriophage infect E.coli. The radioactive material found in the host E.coli contained the radioactive P (found in DNA) as the bacteriophage had multiplied inside the cell, but the radioactive S was not found inside the cell. Therefore DNA is the hereditary molecule resorce - some other guy off the internet
What did Hershey and Chase's work establish?
Hershey and Chase completed research proving that DNA is the "stuff of heredity" and not just protein in 1952. There is information on how they used a bacteriophage to prove this residing on the Answers site.
What did Hershey and Chase show the genetic material of the t2 bacteriophage was?
DNA is the genetic material. However, Hershey-Chase also stated that some little sulfur containing material also entered the bacterial cell. Looking at these two conclusions, Hershey-Chase could not reach a definite conclusion as to whether DNA or Protein contains the genetic material. The conclusion came from Watson-Crick who stated that the sulfur containing material could have entered the cell due to the fact that DNA replication and subsequently translation of the mRNA leads to the synthesis of sulfur containing protein which were found in the bacterial cell.

What scientific hypotheses can be tested by a pulse-chase experiment?
Movement of molecules through a cell over time
