The following points highlight the top four experimental evidences for DNA as genetic material. The experimental evidences are: 1. Transformation 2. Bacteriophage Infection 3. Transduction 4. Biochemical Analysis. Experimental Evidence # 1. Transformation: The genetic recombination in which naked DNA from one cell can enter and integrate in another cell is referred to as genetic transformation. Experiments on genetic transformation [...]
In this essay we will discuss about:- 1. Definition of DNA Replication 2. Mechanism of DNA Replication 3. Evidences for Semi-Conservative DNA Replication 4. Models for Replication of Prokaryotic DNA. Essay # Definition of DNA Replication: DNA replicates by "unzipping" along the two strands, breaking the hydrogen bonds which link the pairs of nucleotides. Each half then serves as a [...]
