Strawberry DNA Extraction lab What was the purpose of the Sodium Chloride? Include a discussion of polarity and charged particle

Biology
1 answer:
lys-0071 [83]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Sodium chloride removes proteins from DNA and helps in DNA precipitation.

Explanation:

The Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is negatively charged due to the highly polar phosphate groups that make up the phosphate backbone. The molecules of water are also highly polar and they have positive charge, thereby water molecules interact with the negative charges of the DNA. The sodium chloride generates temporary attraction forces between sodium (positive) ions and the DNA backbone (negative), thereby DNA can be disassociated from the aqueous layer. Moreover, sodium chloride helps to remove proteins (histones) that bound to DNA and also helps to maintain proteins in the aqueous layer.

In order to use a Punnett, square we must know the ___________ of an individual
egoroff_w [7]
  <span>The genotype is required for you to use a punnet square. In the construction of a punnet's square, the genotypes of both parents are required. In the three by three square, the first column shows the genetic representation of one parent and the first row shows the genotype of the other parent. The two are combined, and they yield a genetic combination of both parents, giving all the possible outcomes of the offspring's genotypes. Using the punnet's square, you can be able to identify the percentage of the offspring that will be heterozygous or homozygous.</span>
