DNA runs from the cathode (-ve electrode) the the anode (+ve electrode) because DNA is negativly charged. This charge exists because of the phosphate backbone of DNA.

Cations are attracted to cathod or anode?

DNA is neither cathode or anode, but it is negatively charged, so the DNA molecules will rn from anode to cathode


Why does the DNA fragment size change as you move from the cathode to the anode?

In gel electrophoresis, DNA fragments move towards the anode (positive electrode) because DNA is negatively charged. Smaller fragments move faster through the gel matrix, so they appear closer to the anode while larger fragments move slower and appear closer to the cathode. This results in separation of DNA fragments based on size.

In cathode ray tube cathode and anode rays travel opposite to each other but they are not neutralized. why?

There is no such thing as anode rays. The cathode rays (aka electron beam) just travels from cathode to anode.

What is the difference between anode and cathode in a battery?

In a battery, the anode is where the electric current flows in, while the cathode is where the current flows out. The anode is negatively charged, and the cathode is positively charged. This flow of electrons between the anode and cathode creates the electrical energy in a battery.
