What is the difference of water molecules separating and breaking apart?
Water molecules separating means they are spreading, or in other words, the water is evaporating. When they are breaking apart, the hydrogen and oxygen are separating.
What are the similarities between paper chromatography and electrophoresis?
Chromatography is a collective term for a family of lab techniques for the separation of the mixtures.It involves a passing a mixture dissolved in a mobile phase through a stationary phase. Electrophoresis is the process by which molecules (such as proteins, DNA, or RNA fragments) can be separated according to size and electrical charge by applying an electric current to them. Each kind of molecule travels through the medium at a different rate, depending on its electrical charge and molecular size In the electrophoresis techniques electricity is required and positive charge goes to the cathode whereas the negative charges goes to the anode (opposite charges attraction) but in Chromatography there is no need for the current or electricity .
What is the Working principal of electrophoresis?
Separates DNA fragments so they can be seen
What is gel electrophoresis used for?
used to separate macromolecules, either nucleic acids or proteins, on the basis of size, electric charge, and other physical properties. Separating strands of DNA
Process that restriction fragments of DNA are separated from each other by the use of electricity?
The process is referred to as gel electrophoresis. This is an analytical process where DNA fragments can be separated based on size within a gel under the influence of an electric field

Do positively charged DNA molecules flow to the negatively charged poles in the electrophoresis chamber?
Yes. Positive(+) goes to negative(-). During gel electrophoresis, the positively charged molecules move to the negative cathode, and vis versa the negatively charged molecules move towards the positive anode.
What happens when you heat or cool molecules?
Heated molecules causes molecules to bounce into each other separating them. As molecules separate, their density, the amount of matter found in a given volume or space, decreases. Cooled molecules are not that loose and start to get packed together if it gets frozen. -twocute
What could be done to resolve two fragments that are nearly the same base-pair length and did not appear on the electrophoresis gel?
You could use other enzymes or use a higher percetage of agarosa to make your gel (so they will have a better chance of separating).

Determine how energy is related to change in state?
Energy is used to do work against in separating the mutually attracive atoms or molecules from each other to change them from solid into liquid and from liquid into gaseous state.
Why is gel electrophoresis important?
To separate and analyze DNA fragments and protein fragments by weight. If you have digested some bacterial DNA, for instance, then you can tell by running the fragmented DNA in the gel whether you have digested the correct base length.

The process is referred to as gel electrophoresis. This is an analytical process where DNA fragments can be separated based on size within a gel under the influence of an electric field
How would the reversal of polarity effect electrophoresis?
Electrophoresis is the motion of particles relative to some fluid influenced by an electric field. The voltage used will affect this electric field, and in turn affect the movement of particles.
