Biology

Vinvika [58]3 years ago

Answer:

Migration distance is inversely proportional to the fragment size,

Explanation:

Gel electrophoresis is a technique used in molecular biology that uses electricity to separate biological molecules based on size (DNA) or charge (proteins). For the DNA molecule, different sizes are separated from one another based on how fast they can migrate through the gel matrix.

In this technique, small fragments or sizes of DNA migrates farther than long sizes of DNA due to low friction in the matrix. In other words, the smaller the size of the DNA fragment, the farther the migration distance and vice versa. This shows that an INVERSE RELATIONSHIP exists between the migration distance and the fragment size in the electrophoresis procedure.

Explain how the law of conservation of energy is applied to the generation of electricity from fossil fuels.
sweet [91]

Explanation:

The law of conservation in generation of electricity from fossil fuels;

 Fossil fuels are derived from the remains of plants and animals.

These fuels stores and preserves chemical energy which have produced through their activities which originates from the sun as form of solar energy.

The chemical energy is obtained for used as fossil fuels.

As fuels, they combine with oxygen in power generating plant to produce heat energy. The combustion process transforms chemical energy to heat energy.

The heat energy is used to heat boilers of water to produce steam. Heat energy is expressed as thermal kinetic energy which are converted to mechanical energy to drive turbines. The turbine is connected to a generator where electricity is produced.

This totally agrees with the law of conservation of energy.

The law states that "energy is neither created nor destroyed but transformed from one form to another"

Chemical energy - heat energy - mechanical energy - electrical energy
