Why are dna fragments with more base pairs found near the sample wells (origin) and the lower number of bp fragments found near

the anode?

Gel electrophoresis is a separating technique that is usually used in the laboratory to separate DNA fragments on the basis of their sizes. DNA are typically loaded into one side of the gel called the well and electric force will be applied to separate the fragments. DNA fragments with more base pairs are found near the sample well compare to the anode because larger DNA fragments are not able to move through the gel at a faster rate like the ones with few number of base pair. Because DNA are negatively charged they move toward the anode, but all DNA fragments have the same amount of charge per mass, thus, small fragments move faster away from the well.

Which statement best describes the relationship between activation energy and rate of reaction? Increasing the activation energy
rusak2 [61]
Reducing the activation energy can increase the rate of a reaction. Reducing the activation energy would mean that less energy is required to process a reaction, whereas increasing activation energy would require more energy to process a reaction.

I will mark BRAINLIEST! I have this science portfolio where I draw a car, I need to use renewable resources that will make sense
ddd [48]

You can put wind energy propellers on the front of your car. This would be effective, as the high speed of the car would increase the rate of energy produced.

You could also have a metal rod slightly scraping the ground, and take the heat generated by friction to produce energy.

Hope this helps!

Which of these scientists is best known for his idea that characteristics an individual gains in its lifetime could be passed on
Anna [14]
This was Lamarck's idea. Here's an example: Suppose giraffes originally had short necks that they stretched to reach high-up leaves in the trees. This continuous stretching of the neck was passed onto offspring, who as a result had slightly longer necks. This continued for multiple generations until we get today's long-necked giraffe. Lamarck was on to something (that something being evolution by natural selection, which Darwin discovered), but his theory wasn't completely correct since organisms can only pass on genes (segments of DNA that code for a characteristic or function) to their offspring. Since "stretching" would not code into DNA, it wouldn't be passed onto offspring, proving Lamarck's theory incorrect.
