A NASA probe returned samples of rocks from the surface of Mars. From these rocks, a prokaryotic organism was isolated and remained viable under conditions similar to those of Mars

The organisms are capable of dividing to replicate themselves. In order to determine whether the DNA replication of these organisms was semiconservative, an experiment using N15/N14 (similar to that of Meselson and Stahl) was performed. If the method of DNA replication were conservative, after one generation one would expect to see A) all of the DNA in the heavy (N15) band. B) all of the DNA in the light (N14) band. C) all of the DNA at a point midway between the heavy and light bands. D) half of the DNA in the light band, the other half in the heavy band. E) None of these are correct.
