In gel electrophoresis, DNA fragments move across a gel. What causes them to move?

1 answer:

4 0

When placed in an electrical field, the negative charge found in the sugar-phosphate backbone of DNA polymers cause them to migrate towards the positive electrode.

<span>In gel electrophoresis, electricity is used to separate fragments of DNA based on its length. DNA is place in a porous gel. The pores of the gel restricts the movement of the DNA. It then creates fragments on the DNA because its movement varies on its lengths. </span>

Magma can partially crystallize at depth and then rise to shallow depths where the remaining magma solidifies. The early-formed

Doss [256]

<h2>Phenocrysts and Porphyritic texture </h2>

Explanation:

The early formed crystals are of phenocrysts and the texture of these crystals is porphyritic texture.
This crystallization occurs when early-forming plagioclase crystals which are rich in calcium start coating with plagioclase crystals which are rich in sodium.
On cooling, the magma is then processed in a volcanic eruption, after the eruption the liquid which is left behind will start cooling and forms a porphyritic texture.

In order to study hydrogen halide decomposition, a researcher fills an evacuated 1.11 L flask with 0.822 mol of HI gas and allow

Elza [17]

Answer:

Kc = 168.0749

Explanation:

2HI(g) ↔ H2(g) + I2(g)

initial mol: 0.822 0 0

equil. mol: 2(0.822 - x) x x

∴ [ HI ]eq = 0.055 mol/L = 2(0.822 - x) / (1.11 L )

⇒ 1.644 - 2x = 0.055 * 1.11

⇒ 1.644 = 2x + 0.06105

⇒ 2x = 1.583

⇒ x = 0.7915 mol equilibrium

⇒ [ H2 ] eq = 0.7915mol / 1.11L = 0.7130 M = [ I2 ] eq

⇒ Kc = ([ H2 ] * [ I2 ]) / [ HI ]²

⇒ Kc = ( 0.7130² ) / ( 0.055² )

⇒ Kc = 168.0749

An experimental spacecraft consumes a special fuel at a rate of 372 L/min. The density of the fuel is 0.730 g/mL and the standar

Karolina [17]

Explanation:

First, we will calculate fuel consumption is as follows.

$372 L/min \times 1000 ml/L \times 0.730 g/ml \times \frac{1}{60} min/s$

= 4526 g/s

Now, we will calculate the power as follows.

Power = Fuel consumption rate × -enthalpy of combustion

= $4526 g/s \times -26.5 kJ/g$

= $1.19 \times 10^{5}$ kW

Thus, we can conclude that maximum power (in units of kilowatts) that can be produced by this spacecraft is $1.19 \times 10^{5}$ kW.
