A most interesting fact about the history of molecular biology is the finding the DNA is the unit of heredity. The scientific evidence to support this was not clearly demonstrated until the 1950รขย€ย™s by Hershey and Chase. What was the classic experiment performed by Hershey and Chase that proved DNA is the hereditary material in cells?

How did Fred Griffith discover transformation?

Describe the experiment by Hershey and Chase that proved DNA was the genetic material.

we conclude that DNA is the genetic material. But how do weconclude that DNA is the genetic material? They only proved thatDNA of virus enters into the bacteria, not the protein coat ofvirus.

The DNA of the virus later destroys the bacteria because thevirus reproduces inside them. Does this demonstrate that DNA is thegenetic material?
