How are restriction enzymes used to look for differences between DNA samples?
Restriction enzymes cleave, or open, the DNA so that a sample can be taken and gel electrophoresis can separate the strands of DNA. From there, DNA probes bind to certain strands in each sample and DNA fingerprints can show the differences.
How long should you incubate water samples?
Water samples should typically be incubated for 5 days at 20-22°C (68-72°F) when measuring biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), which is a standard practice for assessing organic matter levels. For coliform testing, samples are usually incubated for 24 hours at 35°C (95°F). The specific incubation time may vary depending on the type of analysis being performed, so it's important to follow the guidelines relevant to the test in question.
What has to happen before you can run DNA through gel electrophoresis?
Before running DNA through gel electrophoresis, the DNA sample needs to be extracted and purified from the biological material, such as cells or tissues. It also needs to be digested with restriction enzymes to produce fragments of different sizes for separation on the gel. Finally, the DNA samples are mixed with loading dye and loaded into wells on the gel for electrophoresis.
Compare the banding patters formed on each lane of the gel do you think the three DNA samples tested are the same explain how can you further verify wheter or no any of the DNA samples tested are?
To compare banding patterns, visually inspect the gel lanes for the presence and position of bands. Similar banding patterns suggest similar DNA samples. To further verify if the DNA samples are the same, you can perform additional tests such as sequencing or restriction enzyme analysis for confirmation.
How do you use electrophoresis to determine paternity of a baby?
Children receive half of their genetic material from each parent. There are specific sites on DNA, known as restriction sites, that are recognized by restriction enzymes. These are used to determine paternity. Samples of DNA from the mother, father and child are taken. They are all digested ('cut') by the same restriction enzymes. These DNA fragments are then separated by gel electrophoresis (which separates fragments based on size). The bands of the child are compared to the mother and father's. If the band is not the same as the mother's, it must have come from the father. If these do not match up, then the sample was not taken from the biological father.

DNA strands can be clipped crosswise at selected positions by using enzymes called?
DNA can be cut into smaller fragments by enzymes (which are proteins) known as restriction endonucleases (REN's). These enzymes are sequence specific - meaning they produce a cut only at a particular site on the DNA strand. This site where the cut is produced is called the restriction site. Restriction sites are 4 - 6 nucleotides in length. Every restriction enzyme has a different restriction site. This property allows researchers to treat two different DNA samples with the same set of restriction enzymes and then analyze the resulting fragments.A. DNA finger printing
Why is DNA fingerprinting more accurate if the samples are cut with more than one restriction enzyme?
When EcoR1 cuts this DNA, it cuts it at three places into four different segments. EcoR1 is only one of many different restriction enzymes. Each different enzyme cuts DNA at a different site. By using different enzymes, a scientist can cut DNA into many smaller pieces that can be run out on a gel during electrophoresis. Remember that in gel electrophoresis, DNA fragments separate by size. Because these segments have different sizes, they will separate onto a gel at different rates. If different people's DNA is cut by restriction enzymes and then run out on a gel, each person's DNA will leave a different pattern.

How is the DNA molecule divided in RFLP?
In RFLP analysis, the DNA molecule is first isolated from the sample. Then, it is digested with restriction enzymes to cut it into fragments at specific sites, creating a pattern of different lengths. These fragments are separated by size using gel electrophoresis, allowing for comparison of the fragment patterns between different samples.
Why do you think the DNA is storeed both cold and with the InstaGence matrix affter boiling the samples?
any heat can activate the DNA- degrading enzymes
Why is it helpful to digest each of your samples with two different restriction enzymes?
It helps break up your sample even more. Your first enzyme may, for example, ONLY cut at a sequence of TAATTA ---> TA // ATTA. Maybe your second enzyme is less selective, and will cut ANY GC --> G // C. Using them together, you will end up with much smaller fragments than using only enzyme #1 for example.

What is an Omnitrix?
an omnitrix is a device which stores dna samples. it is like a wristwatch which can turn you into an alien for 10 minutes. it is fictional and does NOT.

How long are blood tests good for?
Blood samples can be held in storage for 17 to 180 days. The length of their storage time depends on which enzymes have been added to the sample.
What is cDNA-AFLP technique?
Amplified fragment length polymorphism PCR (or AFLP-PCR or just AFLP) is a PCR-based tool used in genetics research, DNA fingerprinting, and in the practice of genetic engineering. Developed in the early 1990¡¯s by Keygene, AFLP uses restriction enzymes to cut genomic DNA, followed by ligation of complementary double stranded adaptors to the ends of the restriction fragments. A subset of the restriction fragments are then amplified using two primers complementary to the adaptor and restriction site fragments. The fragments are visualized on denaturing polyacrylamide gels either through autoradiography or fluorescence methodologies. AFLP-PCR is a highly sensitive method for detecting polymorphisms in DNA. The technique was originally described by Vos and Zabeau in 1993. The procedure of this technique is divided into three steps: 1. Digestion of total cellular DNA with one or more restriction enzymes and ligation of restriction half-site specific adaptors to all restriction fragments. 2. Selective amplification of some of these fragments with two PCR primers that have corresponding adaptor and restriction site specific sequences. 3. Electrophoretic separation of amplicons on a gel matrix, followed by visualisation of the band pattern. A variation on AFLP is cDNA-AFLP, which is used to quantify differences in gene expression levels. Another variation on AFLP is TE Display, used to detect transposable element mobility.
