Step-by-Step Analysis
Question restatement and options: - 1: Barbara McClintock - 2: Gregor Mendel - 3: James Watson - 4: Polymerase Chain Reaction - 5: Transposons - 6: Ames Test - 7: Fred Sanger Answer options: - A: First described in corn - B: Discovered basic principles of heredity - C: Provided mechanism for isolation of specific nucleic acid sequences from a large, complex sample of sequences - D: developed di-deoxynucleotide incorporation DNA sequencing - E: Provided evidence that genes are located on chromosomes by investigating recombination in corn - F: Provided mechanism for assessing the mutagenic potential of chemicals - G: First to publish double helical conformation of DNA Now, let's analyze each person and how well each option fits, applying reasoning to each choice and noting potential pitfalls: 1) Barbara McClintock - Option E (Provided evidence that genes are located on chromosomes by investigating recombination in corn): This phrasing attributes chromosomal localization evidence to recombination in corn. Barbara McClintock is best known for discovering transposons (jumping genes) in maize (corn), which is a separate concept from t......Login to view full explanation
