Dna Heavy Nitrogen Light Bacteria Grown Centrifuged Strand

Front Describe experiment showing DNA undergoes semi-conservative replication
Back Bacteria grown in heavy and light nitrogen broths, Nitrogen taken up and become part of DNA.

Sample of DNA taken from each batch and centrifuged. Heavy DNA settled lower than light.

Bacteria grown in Heavy Nitrogen put in light nitrogen broth and then DNA was centrifuged.

If DNA conservation orignal Heavy DNA would be intact and new light DNA would settle at top

If DNA semi-conservation DNA molecules would contain 1 strand of Heavy Nitrogen and 1 strand of Light Nitrogen.
