When the detergent/salt/DNA mixture is agitated, the detergent, along with some inadvertently trapped gas, forms bubbles, and these bubbles may stick to the DNA and the histone proteins. They are not formed by any chemical reaction.

How do replication bubbles form during the process of DNA replication?

During DNA replication, replication bubbles form when the DNA double helix unwinds and separates into two strands. Enzymes called helicases unwind the DNA, creating a replication fork where new DNA strands can be synthesized. This process allows for multiple replication bubbles to form along the DNA molecule, enabling efficient and accurate replication.


Why is gentle shaking necessary during the extraction of caffeine from tea?

This is necessary to ensure the solvent moves amongst the tea leaf particles to extract all the caffeine. It agitates the tea leaf particles and separates any that are clumping together and hindering efficient extraction.


What is one of the two strands of a chromosomes that become visible during meiosis or mitosis?

daughter strands


What purpose does sodium chloride serve during extraction of caffeine?

Sodium chloride improve the yield of caffeine extraction from water during the process of decaffeinization.


Chromosomes during prophase are made up of two identical strands What are these strands called?

The two identical strands of a chromosome are called chromatids. DNA replication occurs in the interphase stage of the cell cycle.


The sections of DNA cell copies as RNA strands to make specific proteins during transcription and translation are referred to as?

The sections of DNA that get copied into RNA strands during transcription are called genes. These RNA strands are then used as templates to make specific proteins during translation.

What kinds of bubbles are there?

Does helicase separates the DNA strands during replication?

yes


Why is sodium carbonate added during solvent extraction?

Sodium carbonate is added during solvent extraction to adjust the pH of the solution. This helps in increasing the solubility of the desired compound in the organic solvent phase, leading to better extraction efficiency. Additionally, sodium carbonate helps in neutralizing any acid impurities present in the solution, preventing them from interfering with the extraction process.


Protein strands that attach to the centromere region during M-phase of cell cycle?

During Metaphase the protein strands that attach to the centromere region are called spindle fibres.


What separates the DNA strands during replication?

During replication, the DNA strands are separated by an enzyme called helicase. Helicase unwinds the double helix structure of DNA, breaking the hydrogen bonds between the base pairs and allowing the strands to separate for replication to occur.
