In an important experiment, radioactively labeled bacteriophages were allowed to infect bacteria. In the first trial, the phages contained radioactive DNA, and radioactivity was detected in the bacteria. Next, other phages containing radioactive protein were allowed to infect bacteria, and radioactivity was not detected in the bacteria. These experiments led to the conclusion that __________.A) DNA is made of nucleotides
B) genes carry information for making proteins
C) the genes of this phage were made of DNA
D) bacteriophages can infect bacteria

genes carry information for making proteins

Explanation:

It is a known fact that genes carries information for making proteins which are passed from parents to offspring. These forms the basis of hereditary
