heat-killed S cells with living R cells. | Avery‚ McCarty‚ and MacLeod | First to show that DNA was the genetic material‚ but not believed. Repeated Griffith’s experiment‚ but subjected the strains to different enzymes‚ isolating RNA‚ DNA‚ lipids‚ carbohydrates‚ and proteins. Only the DNA killed the mice; the others had the mice survive. | Hershey and Chase | Used T4 bacteriophages in radioactive phosphorus to track DNA and radioactive sulfur to track proteins to determine what is the transformational material

Biology Review and Study Guide Cell Division and Cancer Cells divide for two main reasons: first‚ the larger a cell becomes‚ the more demands the cell has on its DNA. Second‚ a large cell has more trouble moving enough food in and enough waste out. Before it becomes too large‚ a growing cell divides. The two new cells are referred to as daughter cells. The process by which a cell divides into two cells is called cell division. Mitosis is part of the eukaryotic cell cycle during which the

ribosomes. However‚ it has been proposed that this particular organization is only observed in higher eukaryotes and that it evolved from a bipartite organization with the transition from anamniotes to amniotes. Reflecting the substantial increase in the DNA intergenic region‚ an original fibrillar component would have separated into the FC and the DFC. Another structure identified within many nucleoli (particularly in plants) is a clear area in the center of the structure referred to as a nucleolar vacuole

P216 1. DNA consists of subunits called nucleotides. Each subunit consists of three parts: sugar (deoxyribose)‚ phosphate‚ and base. 2. The subunits of DNA are assembled by linking the sugar of one nucleotide to the phosphate of the next. As it is found in chromosomes‚ two DNA polymers are bound together into a structure called a double helix. 3. The “base-paring rule” in DNA is that adenine pairs with thymine‚ and guanine pairs with cytosine. Bases that can form pairs in DNA are called

prokaryotes‚ it’s easier to make DNA replication because of the lack of a nucleus‚ but to do DNA replication in a eukaryotic cell is more difficult. DNA of an eukaryotic cell is in chromatin form to fit into the small nucleus for the replication to occur‚ first the DNA should open. This is because it is harder for eukaryotes to carry out DNA synthesis. Replication of DNA in a prokaryote is different from a eukaryote. In a prokaryote they have a single origin where the replication process starts. Also eukaryotes

structure and replication of retroviruses. A retrovirus is a virus that has its genes encoded in RNA instead of them being encoded in DNA (it is also known as the RNA virus). Because of this‚ a retrovirus has to have its genes reverse transcribed into DNA before replication. This is carried out by an enzyme called reverse transcriptase. The retro virus upon infecting the host with its DNA can use the host cell’s machinery to replicate. The host cell cannot tell the retrovirus’s DNA from its own

question whether protein or DNA was the genetic material by using Bacteriophages (viruses that infect bacteria). o Bacteriaphages were good for the experiment because they only contain 2 organic compounds‚ DNA and protein. • James Watson and Francis Crick were the first to solve the structure (structure=function) of DNA. • X-ray crystallography( process used to visualize molecules in 3-D. • DNA is a double helix- structure • The nitrogenous bases of DNA are( adenine (A)‚ thymine

genetic material of the cell (DNA) - directs the chemical reactions in cells by transcribing genetic information from DNA into RNA (called DNA replication) - DNA replication allows cells to transfer information from one cell to the next during replication. - Nuclear envelope is the gateway to the cell (also known as nuclear pores)and allows substances (such as vital proteins) to enter and exit the nucleus Chromatin - super microscopic - composed of DNA (looped around histone proteins)
