How does gel electrophoresis sort strands of DNA?l

Biology
1 answer:
Kamila [148]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Gel Electrophoresis is a way to sort and measure the DNA strands. Scientists use the technique whenever they need to sort DNA strands according to lengths, this is because it helps them determine patterns, banding patterns create a unique fingerprint for a certain individual. During the process, the shorter strands move faster because they have less mass compared to the longer strand. Therefore, the short strands end up farther away from the starting point than the longer strands, which is how the difference in lengths sort themselves out.

The mosquito Aedes aegypti has a diploid number of 6 chromosomes. How many DNA molecules and Chromosomes are found per cell when
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

Option C, 12, 6

Explanation:

The number of chromosome and DNA molecule are interpreted through the number of functional centromere and chromatids respectively at each phase of the cell division.  

However, the DNA number only changes in the S phase of the cell division as replication occurs in this phase only.  

Hence, after meiosis I two daughter cells will be formed with half the chromosome number i.e 3 and number of DNA is equal to 12.  

Now, till metaphase II no change occurs. Now at anaphase II DNA remains same while the chromosome number increases to 6

Thus, the correct answer is option C

Describe importance of proteins,carbohydrates and lipids as components of plasma membrane
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

Plasma membrane is made up of a phospholipid bilayer. To be more exact  there is two fatty acids making up the polar hydrophilic head, and a phosphate group attached as the non-polar hydrophobic tail. Proteins have many uses in regards to the cell membrane. In a nutshell they are used for diffusion of molecules across the plasma membrane. They are different types of diffusion, most noteably you should try and know the different between passive and active transport the latter of which involves a protien pump. Carbohydrates are used for cushiing the cell membrane and for cell recognition.
