Question: Would a kiwifruit and strawberry that are approximately the same size also have approximately the same amount of DNA? Background: You have learned that DNA is carried on chromosomes. All mammals are diploid; however, not all plants are diploid. The common strawberry is octoploid (8n) and the cultivated kiwi is hexaploid (6n). Research the total number of chromosomes in the cells of each of these fruits and think about how this might correspond to the amount of DNA in these fruits' cell nuclei. Hypothesis: Hypothesize whether you would be able to detect a difference in DNA quantity from similarly sized strawberries and kiwis. Which fruit do you think would yield more DNA? Test your hypothesis. Perform the DNA extraction experiment. Record your observations: Because you are not quantitatively measuring DNA volume, you can record for each trial whether the two fruits produced the same or different amounts of DNA as observed by eye.
