The answer is length.

A gel electrophoresis is used for separation of DNA or its fragments on the basis of differences in their length. An electric current is running through the gel with positive pole on the bottom. Because of the difference in the lengths of DNA fragments, some <span>of them </span>will travel more quickly than other. It is expected to see smaller DNA fragments at the bottom of the gel and larger DNA fragments near to the top of the gel.

What are the step involved creating a protein
Vlad1618 [11]

first step

A copy is made of one side of the DNA segment where a particular gene is located. This copy is transferred to the cytoplasm.  

second step?

This mirror like copy of a DNA segment is called messenger RNA (mRNA)

third step?

Each group of three bases on the mRNA segment codes for one amino acid.

fourth step?

The mRNA segment is fed through the ribosome.

fifth step?

Molecules of transfer RNA (tRNA) deliver amino acids from the cytoplasm to the ribosome.

DNA wrapped around histone proteins forms a material called ____ which condenses tightly to form _____ that can be seen with a l
makkiz [27]

Answer:

The correct answer will be-

1. Nucleosomes

2. Chromatin

3. Sister chroamtid

4. Centromere

Explanation:

The DNA is a very long molecule which if has to be passed on to the daughter cell as it is will cause problems. So, to reduce problems a cell form tightly packed structure of DNA so that they can be passed easily to the daughter cell.

The packaging of DNA begins with the wrapping of the DNA around histone proteins which forms the 11 nm basic structural units called nucleosomes. The nucleosomes start condensing each other and form 30 nm structure chromatin fibres.

The chromatin fibres undergo replication during S phase which produces an exact copy of the chromatin called sister chromatids bound to each other at a central point called centromere which helps the separation of the chromatids during M phase.
