Describe beadle and tatum’s experiments with neurospora and explain the contribution they made to our understanding of how genes control metabolism

Beadle and Tatum caused a Neorospora collision with x-rays, and then watched for mutants that shows another form of nutritional needs from the wild-type models.

These Mutants had difficulty in feeding but can strive where there is a complete growth medium

This brought them to the conclusion that their genes may have been mutated and transformed to control its own metabolism.

-Beadle & Tatum used Neurospora-experiments showed genes control metabolism

Explanation:

Wild type Neurospora can strive where there is minimal medium of agar, inorganic salts, glucose, and the vitamin biotin. Beadle and Tatum did a series of experiments which involves placing the different forms of mutants into vials which have the minimal medium and a single growth nutrient.

The nutrient that promotes growth showed the enzymes that were still functional and none functional ones.

Thus brought them to the conclusion that genes act by influencing the formation of a specific enzyme.

the framers of the constitution insisted that federal judges be nominated instead of elected due to their desire to have judges above the shifting whims of the masses.

the hope, whether achieved or not, was that federal judges would only be beholden to the law and that by not having judges be elected, they would be protected if that law dictated an outcome that ran counter to popular opinion.
