Correct Answer - B
The use of radioactive thymidine to delect the semiconservative mode of replication of newly synthesised DNA in the chromosomes was performed on Vicia faba by Taylor and colleagues in 1958 . This experiment proved that the DNA in chromosomes replicates semiconservatively . Hence, the option (b) is correct.
