Griffith’s transformation experiment in Streptococcus pneumoniae demonstrated that:
1.    Heat-killed virulent bacteria failed to produce disease in mice
2.    Live non-virulent bacteria failed to produce disease in mice
3.    Heat-killed virulent bacteria transformed non-virulent bacteria into virulent form
4.    Live virulent bacteria alone produced fatal infection in mice
