The significance of the Hershey and Chase

experiments in which 32P and 35S were used is
that
a. DNA labeled with 35S and proteins labeled
with 32P can be traced in the course of an
experiment.
b. they demonstrated that DNA labeled with
32P is transferred from the bacteriophage to
the virus.
c. they established that proteins labeled with
35S become deactivated and unable to be
transferred.
d. they demonstrated that bacteriophages
transfer their DNA, not their protein coats,
into their hosts.
e. DNA may be the hereditary material;
although, bacteriophages transfer both
DNA and proteins into their hosts
