Answer:
Scanning Electron Microscopes
Explanation:
Radiation can damage DNA. This could result in a change in the proteins which make up the plant's physical structure.
<span>For example, a plant might have a gene for purple pigment which makes its flowers purple. Radiation might change the DNA sequence so that the directions for making the purple pigment tell it to stop prematurely, and the result might be white flowers rather than purple flowers.</span>
EDTA inhibits the activity of DNase during DNA isolation process.
DNase is an enzyme which degrades DNA using divalent metal ions like Mg^{2+} . These metal ions act as cofactor for the proper functioning of DNase.
EDTA chelates the divalent metal ions and thus does not allow DNase to access them.
Therefore in this way DNA is prevented from degradation during its isolation.
