Which of the 3 options seems the LEAST likely to be true?

• Conservative

• Semi-Conservative

• Dispersive

Which option seems the MOST likely to be true, based on what we've learned so far about DNA?

• Conservative

• Semi-Conservative

• Dispersive

What was the experimental data or evidence that proved DNA replicates in the Semi Conservative Model?

• The amounts of heavy and light DNA stayed the same through all trials even if they were grown in lighter Nitrogen

• The amount of heavy DNA increased after generations were grown in lighter Nitrogen

• The amounts of heavy DNA decreased after generations were grown in lighter Nitrogen

Of the DNA related research avenues described, which do you feel is most important for us to continue exploring?

• Stopping or accelerating cell division

• Turning a skin cell into a heart or liver cell

• Understanding mutations

• How cells with identical DNA decide to become a heart, liver, muscle, or brain cell
