Because freezing will often burst the cell walls and destroy tissue. The crystals of ice are very sharp and hard to control AFAIK. Note what happens to a banana or many types of fruit after you dethaw — it becomes all mushy and not of the same structure, fiber and cell form as before, like a bad beam up in Star Trek.

Role of cell division of paramecium

Makovka662 [10]

This is an animation of gel electrophoresis. which of these dna molecules is the shortest?

STALIN [3.7K]

In electrophoresis, the molecules travel between the positive electrode and the negative electrode carried by the current that is generated between them.
As seen in the image below, short fragments, due to their smaller size can travel faster than the longer fragments, so the fragments that have traveled the furthermost are the shortest. (marked E in the image)
