BIOXII06: MOLECULAR BASIS OF INHERITANCE

343235 Statement A :
Griffith concluded that the \(\mathrm{S}\) strain bacteria had somehow been transformed by the heatkilled R strain bacteria.
Statement B :
Some 'transforming principle', transferred from the heatkilled S strain, had enabled the R strain to synthesise a smooth polypeptide coat and become virulent.

1 Statement A is correct but Statement B is incorrect.
2 Statement A is incorrect but Statement B is correct.
3 Both statements are correct.
4 Both Statements are incorrect.
