Will your D1S80 fragments be separated by gel electrophoresis if you have a 200 base pair and a 400 base pair?
Yes, gel electrophoresis separates fragments based on their size. Therefore it will be able to separate a 200bp fragment from a 400bp fragment provided you use the correct gel composition (as this affects the sensitivity to size differences).
Analysis of DNA fragments in gel electrophoresis involves what?
i)- the size of the DNA fragment, ii)- the density of the agarose gel, iii) - the intensity of the migratory electric field.
What is vertical gel electrophoresis unit?
Samole moves from top to bottom is called vertical gel system, for example a SDS PAGE gel.
What holds the DNA sample during electrophoresis?
DNA samples are within the gel matrix during electrophoresis. DNA moves at differtent rates through the pores of the gel depending on how long the fragments are. DNA is held by the gel itself.
Can a gel electrophoresis be performed both horizonnally and vertically?
yes for example 2D gel electrophoresis

What is used to cut the DNA into fragment so its sequence could be read?
the process is called gel electrophoresis.
What is used to sort DNA into different lenghts?

How does gel electrophoresis is used to make a DNA fingerprint?
Gel electrophoresis separates DNA fragment on the basis of their size. In DNA fingerprinting or DNA typing given sample is cut up with restriction enzymes and run through electrophoresis and results are analyzed to check for DNA polymorphism between the given sample and a sample form suspect. In nutshell gel electrophoresis is boon for the people in forensics.
what is the gel in Gel Electrophoresis?
For larger molecules like proteins we use polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE). For smaller pieces like DNA we use agarose gel electrophoresis

A technique that can be used to compare the DNA of two or more plants is?
Gel electrophoresis
What is a common name for gel electrophoresis?
gel
Where can one learn more on gel electrophoresis?
To learn more about gel electrophoresis, one can Google it. There is also a whole Wikipedia article dedicated to gel electrophoresis, and it happens to be quite informative.
