What is genetic material package in?
An organism's genetic material is packaged in its chromosomes. The genetic material can be in the form of either DNA or RNA.
When the genetic material was first being isolated and studied there was a controversy about it being DNA or protein-- those that backed protein as the genetic material almost got it right-- explain?
Scientists thought genetic material was a protein not DNA because there are 20 different amino acids for a building of a protein polymer, while DNA polymers only have 4 nucleotide bases.
Do beans have genetic material?
anything that was once living has genetic material
What is meant by reshuffling of genetic material?
crossing over or swaping genetic material
Indicate where the genetic material is located in?
I said the genetic material are located in the prokaryotic cells
Who determines the genetic material used to make a protein?
scientists
Many scientists think that DNA was the first genetic material?
yes
What scientist conducted tests on extracts made of bacteria to show that the genetic material in bacteria is DNA?
Alfred Hershey and Martha Chase conducted the famous Hershey-Chase experiment in 1952, which confirmed that DNA, not protein, is the genetic material in bacteriophages. They used radioactive labeling to trace the genetic material within the bacteriophages, providing evidence for the role of DNA in heredity.
What scientist conducted tests on extracts made of bacteria to show that genetic material in bacteria is DNA?
It is not Hershey and Chase !! It is Oswald Avery that conducted these experiments!
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.
What do scientists test and make conclusions about?
Scientist usually test and conclude about new discoveries or finds, such as new species, genetic engineering, etc.
Describe how DNA evidence might be used to confirm scientists' conclusions about any relationship between birds and seals?
DNA evidence can be used to compare the genetic similarities and differences between birds and seals, providing insight into their evolutionary relationship. By analyzing the genetic material of both species, scientists can confirm or refute their conclusions about the evolutionary relationship between birds and seals, based on the presence of shared or distinct genetic markers. This molecular evidence can offer a reliable way to support or challenge existing theories about the evolutionary history of birds and seals.
Hershey and chase concluded that the genetic material of the bacteriophage was?
DNA. Hershey and Chase conducted the blender experiment using bacteriophages to show that DNA, not protein, is the genetic material that is passed on during viral infection.
Which characteristic do viruses share with living thing?
They contain genetic material. Although virus' contain genetic material, they can not reproduce without being inside of a host cell. Many scientists question if they can be considered living or not, as this is the only life function they are capable of performing.
What do scientists feel that the genetic code helps to show proof of?
Scientists believe that the genetic code provides evidence of common ancestry among all living organisms and the process of evolution. The universal presence of genetic material in all living beings suggests a shared evolutionary history and the transmission of genetic information from one generation to the next.
Who were Avery McCarthy Macleod and oswald?
Avery McCarthy and MacLeod were two scientists who, along with Colin MacLeod, conducted the landmark experiment in 1944 that confirmed DNA as the genetic material in bacteriophages. Oswald Avery was the senior member of the team, and their work laid the foundation for our understanding of DNA's role in heredity.
Why did scientists question Avery's findings?
Scientists questioned Avery's findings because they had difficulty accepting that DNA, which was previously thought to be a simple molecule, could be responsible for genetic inheritance. Additionally, Avery's experiments were considered too simple and lacked detailed mechanistic explanations to convince some scientists of his conclusions.
