A Nephron is the functional unit of the kidney.  

<u>Explanation: </u>

The nephron in kidney removes the waste from the body. Each kidney of the human body have nearly one million nephrons. There are two different kinds nephrons are present in human kidney and those nephrons are located at different parts in renal cortex. The two different kinds of nephrons are called cortical nephrons and juxtamedullary nephrons.

The three parts of the nephron are:

· A renal corpuscle.

· A renal tubule.  

· The capillary network.

A different DNA ladder from NEB (Cat #N3200L) comes as 500 uL of a 1000 ug/mL solution and is not pre-mixed with the 6 X DNA loa
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

4 ul Loading Buffer + 19.70 ul dH2O + 0.30 ul DNA Ladder

Load 12 ul on the gel.

Explanation:

DNA Ladder concentration = 1000 ug/ml

1000 ug DNA in 1 ml DNA Ladder solution →    150 ng DNA = 0.15 ug DNA in..... 0.00015 ml = 0.15 ul DNA Ladder solution

6x DNA Loading Buffer → it has to be diluted by an equal volume 6 times (1 ul LB + 1 ul distilled H2O)

An appropriate volume to load on an average agarose gel is 12 ul, so:

2 ul Loading Buffer + 9.85 ul dH2O + 0.15 ul DNA Ladder = 12 ul

But since 0.15 ul is a very small volume and mistakes could be made while measuring it, let's make double:

4 ul Loading Buffer + 19.70 ul dH2O + 0.30 ul DNA Ladder = 24 ul

And load half of that solution (12 ul) on the gel.
