Practise IB Biology HL A1.2.1 by identifying DNA as the genetic material in plant genomes and interpreting repeated evidence.
The image shows the results of Griffith's experiment with S and R strains of Streptococcus pneumoniae in mice (Mus musculus).

What is an explanation for the results?
Mice vary in their resistance to bacteria.
The R strain and S strain mated.
R strain bacteria are more heat-stable than S strain.
DNA was transferred from heat-killed S cells to R cells.
