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 did Martha chase discover?

Martha Chase, along with Alfred Hershey, conducted experiments in the early 1950s that demonstrated DNA is the genetic material of viruses. Their work with the T2 bacteriophage, a virus that infects bacteria, showed that only the DNA from the virus, not its protein coat, was necessary for the infection of bacteria. This pivotal discovery provided strong evidence for the role of DNA in heredity and laid the groundwork for molecular biology.


What is the function of bacteriophage?

The function of bacteria is to reproduce. Bacteria is a large domain of prokaryotic microorganisms. They are also the cause of human and animal diseases. Some bacteria, like those in the intestines are friendly and needed for digestion.

What is haplogroup T2?

Haplogroup T2 is a human mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) haplogroup. It is believed to have originated in the Near East around 19,000-26,000 years ago. Individuals carrying the T2 haplogroup can be found in various populations, but it is more common in certain regions like Europe and the Middle East.
