What is used to sort DNA into lengths?
Gel Electrophoresis
What is the term used to describe the shape of DNA?
DNA is organized in a double-helix fashion.
Does DNA control traits?
Chromosomes contain organisms' DNA. DNA is the genetic information that controls the traits of organisms. Chromosomes are found on DNA.
What types of technology are used in biology?
I believe microscopes are used, computers help with keeping track of results from experiments, and maybe there is some sort of DNA scanner used in looking at a type of organism? Hope that helps :)
Would the DNA be the same in any cell in the human body?
Yes, (except for slight random replication mutations that may happen due to exposure to radiation or harsh chemicals or invasion by viruses) apart form the egg and sperm cells which contain only half the DNA.
What is used to sort DNA into lengths?
Gel Electrophoresis
Electrophoresis is used to sort DNA by?
Electric charge
How is polymorphic DNA used for identification purposes?
Polymorphic DNA is a stretch or multiple stretches of DNA that have high variability among individuals. Since the chance of DNA being different among these stretches in two different people, these pieces of DNA are commonly used for identification purposes.
Is DNA testing different between different species?
DNA testing is the same, no matter what species it is performed on. DNA testing can be used to find genetic abnormalities and establish biological connections.
What is the term used to describe the shape of DNA?
DNA is organized in a double-helix fashion.
How are DNA sequences used for classification?
DNA is used in the classification of different and similar organisms. It also helps to determine if certain DNA profiles match.
What is the processes used to separate DNA segments of different lengths?
pcr
Splicing DNA from two different organisms produces a new DNA segment called?
When DNA contains parts from two or more organisms it is recombined. Recombinant DNA is often used in genetic engineering. A natural process of DNA recombination is called sexual reproduction.
In what industries are synthetic genomics used?
Synthetic genomics are used in health industries that study DNA. DNA insdustries study DNA with microscopes and determine different things about the genetic make up of humans.
Can Restriction Enzymes be used on all DNA?
Restriction enzymes cut DNA at sites called restriction sites on the DNA. These restriction sites are specific sequences of 6 - 8 nucleotide bases. Restriction enzymes can be used on all types of DNA. If the DNA is cut by a certain restriction enzyme, then we know that the DNA contained the restriction site. This sort of an experiment is called restriction site analysis
Does the mitochondrion have DNA that is somewhat different form nuclear DNA?
If you are refering to the mitochondria/mitochondrion then no because the mitochondria is used in our cells while nuclear DNA are used for things like making bombs i would assume.
What is the use of Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate in DNA electrophoresis?
it is used to separate and analyse different strands and size of various DNA types
