The concentration of agarose gel affects the resolution of DNA separation. For a standard agarose gel electrophoresis, a 0.8% gi

ves good separation or resolution of large 5–10kb DNA fragments, while 2% gel gives good resolution for small 0.2-1kb fragments. 1% gels is often used for a standard electrophoresis. If you have very similar sized DNA molecules that are running too close together on an agarose gel, what solution would you apply to resolve this issue?

Answer:

Use a higher % agarose gel.

Explanation:

Agarose gels have a porous matrix. The higher the concentration of agarose, the smaller the pores, so larger DNA molecules will have more difficulty moving through the gel and they will run slower than small DNA molecules.

The higher % agarose gel has thus a better resolving power (the measurable interval between two entities -the DNA bands- is smaller). For that reason, a 2% agarose gel will allow you to differentiate better between two bands of close molecular weight, if you let the DNA fragments run long enough.

Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

The effect that a situation like this:

Imagine a scenario where a disease has infected many species of grass in the savanna.

Would have in is A disbalance in the ecosystem because the infected plants would die and they won't be able to feed the animals that eat them and they would have to migrate to look for plants to eat. That would also lead to predators that eat the animals that feed on plants to follow them and both types of animals would be reduced in the trip.

Explanation:

To understand this answer we need to analyze the full context. First of all the plants are used as food by the herbivores, therefore they would see themselves in the need to look for healthy plants that could be used as food. Predators would follow them and this trip will reduce the number of both because they would require energy and food to keep traveling. The herbivores would take the worse part because they are bigger in number and their food would scarce, while they would be used as easy food for the carnivores.

Gnom [1K]

Answer:

Independent assortment

Explanation:

The law of independent assortment says that genes for different traits or characteristics assort independently from each other during gamete formation. So each contrasting character's pair assort independently and do not show any association with the pair of other characters.

So after gamete formation collectively the gametes have all the possible combinations of alleles because all the genes are assorted independently in gametes.

This independent assortment of traits leads to some new combination of characteristics in the offspring. Therefore the correct answer is independent assortment.
