Griffith's experiments with s. pneumoniae were significant because they showed that traits could be transferred from one organism to another. what else did he find that was significant?

a.heat kills bacteria.
b.a virus made the bacteria pathogenic.
c.dna was the genetic material.
d.the transferred traits were heritable.
e.protein could not be the genetic material.

d.The transferred traits were heritable.

Explanation:

Griffith's experiments with S. pneumoniae were significant  because they showed that traits could be transferred from one organism to another and these transferred traits are known to be as heritable traits. In another experiment carried out by Hershey and Chase experiment it was confirmed by the results that DNA is actually the hereditary material not the protein.
