O positive O negative O both O either onearrow_forward
- Gel electrophoresis drives DNA along an electrical current from a negative electrode to a positive electrode. This is because DNA is a negatively charged molecule. Do you think that gel electrophoresis would function differently if DNA was positively charged? How so? Why?arrow_forwardWhen gel electrophoresis is done correctly, which of these DNA molecules would move the least through the gel? Group of answer choices: 1000 bp molecules 6 Kbp molecules 3 Kbp molecules 2000 bp moleculesarrow_forwardWhich protein is needed to lay down a segment of RNA complementary to the DNA before replication can begin? O RNA pelymerase NI O primase O helicase O DNA polymerase lII O topoisomerasearrow_forward
- Which one of the following statements is true about gel electrophoresis of DNA? Select the correct answer Current is conducted thru the gel by electrons which move away from the negative electrode and towards the positive electrode O if the power supply voltage is fixed increasing the resistance of the gel increases the current that flows through it O Decreasing the power supply voltage increases the resistance of the gel O Choose this answer if none of the statements is true O If the power supply voltage is fixed Increasing the length of the gel will decrease the current flowing through itarrow_forwardHow are Chromosomes different from DNA?
