DNA replication is studied in a newly discovered bacterium. It takes 30 min for the bacterium to complete a round of replication at 37oC. A Meselson-Stahl-type experiment was performed. The bacteria were grown for several generations in 14N-medium and then switched to 15N-medium. The DNA molecules were then analyzed.

If the mechanism of DNA replication in this bacterium were semi-conservative, what results would be found when the double-stranded DNA was analyzed in a CsCl density gradient after three generations in 15N-medium?
