Statement: AFLP shares some features of both RFLP and RAPD analyses.

Explanations: I. It uses restriction enzyme-digested genomic DNA as template for PCR amplification using primers that contain the restriction enzyme recognition sites plus a number of, usually 2-3, arbitrary nucleotides.

II. AFLPs are faster, less labour intensive and provide more information than RFLPs, and they are highly reproducible, which is a great advantage over RAPDs.

In the Meselson-Stahl DNA replication experiment, if the cells were first grown for many generations in 15N containing media, and then switched to 14N containing media, what percent of the DNA had 1 light strand and 1 heavy strand after 2 generations of growth in 15N growth media?

Frederick Griffith accidentally discovered transformation when attempting to develop a vaccine for pneumonia. He injected mice with samples from S-strain (virulent) and/or R-strain (nonvirulent) pneumococci bacteria (Streptococcus pneumoniae). Which of the following results is NOT consistent with Griffith's experiments?
