Textbook Question
Chapter 9, Problem 2EQ
With regard to the experiment described in Figure 9.2, answer the following:
A. List several possible reasons why only a small percentage of the type R bacteria was converted to type S.
B. Explain why an antibody was used to remove the bacteria that were not transformed. What would the results look like, in all five cases, if the antibody/centrifugation step had not been included in the experimental procedure?
C. The DNA extract was treated with DNase, RNase, or protease. Why was this done? (In other words, what were the researchers trying to determine?)

One of the ways for a cell to generate ATP is through the oxidative phosphorylation. In oxidative phosphorylation 3 ATP are produced from every one NADH molecule. In respiration, every glucose molecule produces 10 NADH molecules. If a cell is growing on 5 glucose molecules, how much ATP can be produced using oxidative phosphorylation/aerobic respiration?
If a cell is growing on 5 glucose molecules, how much ATP can be produced using oxidative phosphorylation/aerobic respiration?
How do i know which way the arrows go?
