D. The Meselson and Stahl experiments demonstrated the mechanism of DNA replication by
studying the density of DNA of cells that were first grown in the presence of 15N and then in
presence of 14N isotopes. The following Figure "a" shows the results from Meselson and
Stahl's experiment of DNA separated by desity gradient centrigugation. The lighter DNA is on
the left and the heavier DNA is found on the right in the figure below. The Figure "b" shows
the spectrum of the heavier DNA peaking on the rightside and the lighter one pearking on
the leftside. Briefly, explain how the semiconservative mode of DNA replication is supported
by their experimental results and what they may have seen if the replication modes were
conservative or dispersive.
