5 0

Answer:

The process of extracting the DNA is a very complex, time taking and tedious task. It needs lots of technical knowledge in order to extract DNA.

There are various chemicals used during the process of DNA extraction. The use of isopropyl alcohol is to precipitate the DNA.

This precipitation makes the DNA visible as it is clumped together. Then it becomes easy for the long strands of DNA to wrap around the stirrer when swirled at the interface between two layers.

¿Que aspecto debemos considerar para desidir el uso mas adecuado de lagunos materiales en la satisfacción de necesidades humanas
umka21 [38]

Answer:

El efecto del material sobre el medio ambiente es el aspecto a considerar.

Explicación:

Se debe verificar la estructura química del material o de qué elementos se forma un material para conocer el efecto de estos materiales en la salud y el medio ambiente de las personas. Si los materiales no afectan el medio ambiente y la salud humana, el ser humano puede utilizarlos para satisfacer sus necesidades. Si el material se forma a partir de elementos tóxicos o elementos que no se descomponen por microbios, entonces este tipo de materiales son peligrosos tanto para la salud humana como para el medio ambiente porque estos materiales contaminan el medio ambiente y debido a esta contaminación la salud humana se ve gravemente afectada.
