Question 28 Imagine that vou are working in a lab studying the SARS-Cov-2 virus and you are trying to do an Avery-McLeod-McCarty type experiment to determine the genetic material of this virus. You know that if you transduce a moture of macromolecules from viral isolates (taken from hutman new infectious viral particles are made. You perform three experiments: 1. You treat the mixture with protease, then observe synthesis of viral particles. 2. You treat the mixture with RNase and observe no synthesis of viral particies. 3. You treat the nasal swabs) into human cultured mixture with DNase and observe synthesis of viral particles. How do you interpret these re results? The SARS-COV-2 virus uses RNA as its genetic material, IL There was likely an error in the experiment because DNase treatment should have had the opposite result. The SARS-Cov-2 virus uses both proteins and DNA as its genetic material. Avery. McLeod and McCarty tried this with SARS COV-2 and obtained different results v SARS-Cov-2 uses DNA as its genetic material. Ouestion 28 of M
