How are DNA fragments separated on DNA fingerprinting?
Gel electrophoresis
When and where is DNA copied and separated?
Mitosis
What organelle also stores DNA?
The nucleus contains most of the DNA in a cell and this DNA is called the chromosomal DNA. It is separated from the rest of the cell by a double layer of membrane. The mitochondria also contain DNA, called the mitochondrial DNA.
What is the actual coding DNA?
Chromesoines
The cells of a prokaryote lack a nucleus?
First off, an English correction. You can't contain a lack of something, as there is nothing to contain. What I think you mean to ask is Do the prokaryotes lack a nucleus?If this is the question then the answer is yes, the prokaryotes (bacteria) do not contain a nucleus.
What kind of precipitate is formed when alcohol is added to denatured DNA?
When alcohol is added to denatured DNA, a white stringy precipitate of DNA will form. The DNA precipitates out of the solution because of its insolubility in alcohol, allowing it to be separated from the rest of the solution.
How are DNA fragments separated on DNA fingerprinting?
Gel electrophoresis
Why does ethanol precipitate DNA during the extraction process?
Ethanol precipitates DNA during the extraction process because DNA is not soluble in ethanol. When ethanol is added to the DNA solution, the DNA molecules become less soluble and clump together, forming a visible precipitate that can be collected and separated from the rest of the solution.

What is the role of 70 ethanol in DNA extraction?
70% ethanol is used in DNA extraction to wash and precipitate DNA from a sample. Ethanol helps to remove impurities and salts, allowing DNA to clump together and be easily separated from the rest of the sample. It also helps to preserve the integrity of the DNA during the extraction process.
What organelle also stores DNA?
The nucleus contains most of the DNA in a cell and this DNA is called the chromosomal DNA. It is separated from the rest of the cell by a double layer of membrane. The mitochondria also contain DNA, called the mitochondrial DNA.
What characteristics allow DNA to be easily separated from most of the cellular components?
DNA is soluble in water, but not in salty water. All the other cell contents are soluble in water and saltwater. This difference in solubility allows students and researchers to separate DNA from the rest of the cell.
What binds the DNA strands to keep them separated?
The DNA strands are bound and kept separated by hydrogen bonds between complementary base pairs.
What is the function of salt in DNA extraction?
Salt helps to neutralize the charges on the DNA phosphate backbone and the proteins present in the cell lysate, allowing DNA molecules to clump together and precipitate out of solution. This step helps to separate DNA from other cellular components during the extraction process.
What is role of CTAB - NaCl?
Often used to purified crude cell lysate by precipitating proteins, lipids and polysaccarides out of solution. This leaves only nucleic acid (DNA, RNA) in the supernatant.
The junction between separated strands of DNA is called what?
The junction between separated strands of DNA is called a replication fork.
Why DNA is separated if you put it in distilled water?
