Let's put it this way, we know that electrophoresis is a test for the sizes of the fragments of DNA molecules while SDS-page is a test of the size of protein molecules. If you use electrophoresis to test the differences of protein, there will not be any bands as all the protein will travel to the end of SDS-page. Therefore, we can conclude that the pores of electrophoresis is much more larger than SDS-page. Since electrophoresis has larger pores than SDS-page, it also shows that overall DNA is larger than protein in size.

Is a cell smaller or bigger than a gene?
Bigger. A gene is one of thousands of segments in the DNA that is found within a cell.
If enzymes are bigger or DNA is bigger in molecular size?
Enzymes are smaller than the DNA they process in molecular size. This is because the DNA is a very long string of parts, whereas the enzyme is a single piece.
Is DNA longer or shorter than rna?
Since both proteins and DNA are polymers (molecules arranged like chains made up of smaller molecules called monomers), their sizes cannot be compared. However, the monomer of DNA (called a nucleic acid) is smaller than the monomer of a protein (called an amino acid)
Is a gene or the DNA bigger?
Gene is found in genome of a cell which is in the nucleus. Nucleus is the master organelle of cell that dictates all the process. Cell encompasses nucleus and other organelles which can cluster up and make tissue.
Agarose gels are used to study what size of DNA fragments?
When the electric charge is applied, the bigger, unligated peices stay near the well because they are too large to move as fast as the smaller pieces. The smaller fragments are farther from the well since they move more easily through the gel.
Is a cell smaller or bigger than a gene?
Bigger. A gene is one of thousands of segments in the DNA that is found within a cell.
Whether enzyme is bigger or DNA is bigger in molecular size and how do we conclude that?
enzyme is nothing but the protein which is formed from DNA by translation through transcription of a particular region of the DNA . so obviously the DNA is larger than the enzyme in molecular size.
Is a chromosome smaller than DNA?
Chromosomes are made of DNA coiled around protein histones. So no, chromosomes are not smaller, but they are more condensed then when the DNA is unwound in strand form.
If enzymes are bigger or DNA is bigger in molecular size?
Enzymes are smaller than the DNA they process in molecular size. This is because the DNA is a very long string of parts, whereas the enzyme is a single piece.

Is DNA bigger than a nucleotide?
Yes .
Is DNA bigger than chromatin fiber?
no
What is bigger a water molecule or carbon atom?
Glucose molecules are bigger than water molecules.
Is a gene or the DNA bigger?
Gene is found in genome of a cell which is in the nucleus. Nucleus is the master organelle of cell that dictates all the process. Cell encompasses nucleus and other organelles which can cluster up and make tissue.
In gene expression and protein synthesis information flows from?
DNA --> RNA --> Proteins -----------------------------------------That simple.
Is nucleus smaller than atom?
An atom comprises an atomic nucleus with orbiting electrons. So the nucleus is smaller than an atom. To phrase it the opposite way, an atom is alwys larger than the nucleus (of the same atom of course!!)
What are the filsments of DNA and protein?
In essence, a protein filament is a long strand (aka filament) that's made of protein (hence, "protein filament"). So they are composed of smaller, protein subunits, which are single protein molecules.
