Question

Taylor conducted the experiments to prove semi conservative mode of chromosome replication on

NISHANTH · Accepted Answer

## CORE INFORMATION
✓ **Answer**: [C]
## CONCEPT FRAMEWORK
	**Primary Concept**: Semi-conservative DNA replication and the experimental evidence supporting it.
	**Related Topics**: DNA replication, chromosome structure, experimental design.
	**Prerequisites**: Basic understanding of DNA replication and the concept of semi-conservative replication.
## SOLUTION PATHWAY
**Given Information**:
	Specific experiment by Taylor demonstrating semi-conservative replication.
	The need to identify the specific organism used in the experiment.
**Method & Steps**:
	1. Recall the specific organism used by Taylor in his experiment.
		Reasoning: This question requires direct recall of a historical experiment.
	2. Identify the correct organism from the given options.
		Working: Taylor's experiment involved Vicia faba.
		Key Point: This is a fact-based recall question.
	3. Select the correct option.
		Result: Vicia faba is the correct answer.
		Verification: Confirmed by historical records and biology textbooks.
 ## OPTION ANALYSIS
[A] :x: E. coli was used in other DNA replication studies, but not in Taylor's experiment for semi-conservative replication.
[B] :x: Vinca rosea is a plant, but not the one used by Taylor.
[C] ✓: Vicia faba (broad bean) was used by Taylor in his experiment demonstrating semi-conservative replication.
[D] :x: Drosophila melanogaster is a fruit fly, which is not the organism used in this experiment.
 ## LEARNING AIDS
	**Common Mistakes**:
		1. Confusing experiments: Confusing Taylor's experiment with other experiments related to DNA replication.
			How to avoid: Carefully remember the specific scientist and organism associated with the semi-conservative replication experiment.
	**Quick Tips**:
		1. Use mnemonics: Remembering scientists and their specific contributions.
		2. Review textbook sections: Regularly revisit the sections related to DNA replication experiments.
