Question
griffiths experiments were important because they showed ________. that the genetic material could be passed from one cell to another that proteins could not be the genetic material of cells how genetic material was inherited in bacteria the true identity of the genetic material
Griffith's experiments showed that non - virulent bacteria could be transformed into virulent bacteria by a 'transforming principle' from heat - killed virulent bacteria, indicating that genetic material could be passed from one cell to another. It did not determine the true identity of the genetic material (DNA), nor did it show how genetic material was inherited in bacteria or that proteins could not be the genetic material.
