White blood cells called b cells produce proteins that can be used for the treatment of certain illnesses. however, these b cells do not live for very long on their own. to keep the b cells growing for a long time in laboratories, scientists fuse the b cells with cancer cells (fused b-cancer cells) that do grow for a very long time. the particular cancer cells used for the fusion are treated with chemicals that make them unable to produce the nitrogenous bases adenine and guanine, but the b cells with which they are fused do produce these nitrogenous bases. the scientists grow the large fused b-cancer cells in a growth medium that contains necessary nutrients for the cells and includes a source of carbon.
(a) describe the role of carbon in biological systems.

Imagine you are a student in alfred hershey and martha chase's lab in the late 1940's. you are given five test tubes with the e. coli bacteria that were infected with t2 bacteriophage that have been labeled with 32p or 35s. unfortunately, you forgot to label the tubes and are now uncertain which were 32p labeled and which were 35s labeled. you place the contents of each tube in a blender and pulse it for a few seconds to shear off the protein coats from the bacterial outer membranes. you then centrifuge the contents to seperate the protein coats and the bacterial cells. you then check for radioactivity and obtain the results shown below. which tubes contained e. coli infected with the phage labeled with 32p? select all tubes that apply.
