I believe the positive control receives a treatment with a known response, so that this positive response can be compared to the unknown response of the treatment. This is used in electrophoresis to compare the DNA strands to the DNA standard. The negative control is used when no response is expected, which is also used in the process of electrophoresis. Electrophoresis is a technique used in laboratories  in order to separate macromolecules based on size. It applies a negative charge so proteins move towards a positive charge. It is sued for the analysis of both DNA and RNA.

mr Goodwill [35]
<span>The dissociation theory states that while in hypnosis, the mind is completely separated from the rest of consciousness. So, if a person underwent hypnosis, and her hand was put in ice, her mind would theoretically not be able to register the pain that would be experienced by her body. So, the statement that she didn't feel pain from the ice is consistent with the dissociation theory.</span>

11111nata11111 [884]

The process of converting the genetic message from DNA into RNA is called transcription.

Transcription is the phase of gene expression in which a certain part of DNA is copied into RNA. Transcription is carried out by the enzyme RNA polymerase which joins nucleotides to produce an RNA strand and uses a DNA strand as a template. The three stages involved in transcription are initiation, elongation, and termination.
