The bacterial transformations done by Griffith which later was continued in Avery, MacLeod and McCarty experiments showed that a non virulent strain of bacteria gets transformed into a virulent strain of bacteria in presence of RNAse but not in presence of DNAase. These experiments suggested that a. DNA is the molecule of inheritance b. RNA is the molecule of inheritance c. chromosomes are made of DNA and proteins d. proteins are the molecules of inheritance e. no conclusion could be made: either proteins or DNA were the material of inheritance
