Answer: "Decreasing the salt concentration of the solution lowers DNA's melting point (Tm)" is not a true statement
Explanation:
Increasing salt concentration would lower the DNA's melting point (Tm), not otherwise.
For instance:
- In 8M urea (8M means 8 Moles per dm3), Tm is decreased by nearly 20°C.
- 95% formamide at room temperature would completely denature the double stranded DNA.
Thus, higher concentration of salts like urea or formamide lowers Tm, not otherwise
Cancer is a mutation that occurs during the cell cycle, usually when it develops and grows it means the mutation was able to go through the cycle undetected at checkpoints so the cell was not destroyed by the lysosomes.
Answer:
The correct answer is - To dissolve the cell and nuclear membranes and release the DNA.
Explanation:
The major function of the detergent in DNA extraction is to dissolve the cell and cellular membranes. It can increase the membrane permeability by pulling apart lipids and proteins that are components of the nuclear and cellular membrane and lyse the cell, from which we want to extract the DNA.
Detergents cause pores in the cell membranes and once these membranes are completely lysed the DNA is released from the cell. It is similar to detergents removes fat (lipids) from dishes.
Hi there!
Sustainability means that something or someone has the ability to keep something going.
For example, a plant could have good life sustainability because it has a special poison, keeping predators away from it.
You could be self sustainable by growing your own crops, collecting your own water, and making things you need.
Hope this helps!
