Transformation Lab Report Introduction Transformation is the transfers of virulence from one cell to another‚ through the transferring of genetic material. It was originally postulated in 1928 through the works of Federick Griffith‚ a British microbiologist. Griffith observed that the mutant form‚ non-virulent form‚ of the bacteria Streptococcus Pnumoniae could be transformed into the normal‚ virulent form‚ when injected into mice along with heat killed normal forms. He concluded that somehow

In this lab‚ we performed a genetic transformation through the process of gene transfer. Gene transfer involves the insertion of a gene into an organism. The gene to be inserted is usually contained in a plasmid‚ which is relatively small‚ circular non-chromosomal DNA molecule typically found in bacteria. Once the plasmid containing the gene is inserted into the organism‚ it is absorbed into the organism’s own genetic code. After this occurs‚ the newly introduced gene begins coding for proteins‚

Transformation in bacteria is the genotype alteration by the uptake of naked‚ foreign DNA from the environment. This concept of transformation was first discovered when Fred Griffith an experiment using mice and strains of pneumonia. Griffith concluded that a “principle” was transferred from heat-killed S strains to the R strains‚ which transformed them into deadly S strains. Oswald Avery later determined‚ through a series of experiments‚ that DNA was the “principle” that caused the R stains to become

1. Explain economics? Economics is the study of how society allocates scarce resources and goods. Resources are the inputs that society uses to produce output‚ called goods. Resources include inputs such as labor‚ capital‚ and land. Goods include products such as food‚ clothing‚ and housing as well as services such as those provided by barbers‚ doctors‚ and police officers. These resources and goods maybe be considered scarce because of society’s tendency to demand more resources and goods than

He wakes up realizing that he is a new species‚ and has to adjust to his new life. Gregory’s transformation also causes for a new training of how to maneuver on a daily basis
