The strongest direct evidence that DNA is the genetic material comes from what contemporary methodology?

I know it is recombinant DNA technology, but I am having a hard time understanding the reason why this is.

Review the Recombinant DNA and Ethics activity. Complete all four sections. Determine, in each section, whether the items in the presentation are applications of recombinant DNA technology. â¢Click on items in each section. â¢A pop-up box will appear, asking you whether or not this item is an application of recombinant DNA technology. â¢If you click yes, a notepad appears allowing you to type notes about the application and in what way it is used. â¢Include any ethical issues that arise out of this application. â¢A MicrosoftÂ® Word document, containing all of your notes, is generated at the end of the activity when you click Print at the bottom of the notepad.

Write a short paper of at least 25 sentences on one of the following topics:

1) Even though most drugs are synthetically produced, they are linked to natural products. Coumadin (warfarin) is just such an example. The name of the chemical, warfarin, is an abbreviation. What does warfarin stand for? Describe the history of how warfarin was discovered. What is the antidote to warfarin toxicity?

2) Recombinant DNA technology has revolutionized the world of medicine and food production, but most people have little understanding of what it means to perform "genetic modifications". (Side note: People have screamed bloody murder about genetically modified foods, but there's been no outcry about genetically modified medicines.) Describe, in basic details, the process of producing a medicine with recombinant DNA technology.

3) The glycoprotein antagonists are fascinating chemicals. There are three of them and all three of them essentially do the same thing (they bind to platelets and prevent them from sticking together) but they do so in completely different ways. Pick at least one and describe its mechanism of action in inhibiting platelet aggregation.

There is a topic that I am having a hard time understanding. What is the difference between a Prokaryotic Cell and a Eukaryotic Cell? I know what we (humans) are made of Eukaryotic Cells and foreign cells (bacteria) are prokaryotic cells. What's confusing me is when my textbook talks about them both having a cell wall. Prokaryotic Cells have a complex polysaccharide peptoglycan cell wall along with its membranes. Then it states that Eukaryotic Cells also cell walls, they are just simple composed of cellulose. When I hear the words Cell Wall, I immediately think of plants cells, not bacteria and animal cells. In this situation, does the term cell wall have a different meaning? Maybe I am over thinking this. Just an FYI this is for Microbiology, feel free to go into detail.
