DNA is a long chain made up of smaller subunits called

• nucleotid

• nucleotides

• Double helix

• Restriction enzymes

What is the purpose of PCR?

• To amplify DNA (make lots of copies of DNA)

• Make Double helixs

• The genetic makeup of an individual

• To break apart the fat in the cell membrane

When running a gel, DNA will move to the ____ end because the DNA has a ____ charge

• Double / helix

• mashing / individual

• positive / negative

• cytosine,/ thymine

A nucleotide is made up of a sugar, a phosphate, and a _____

• Restriction enzyme

• positive molecule

• nitrogenous base

• polymerase chain

Where is DNA found?

• with base pairs

• in a Double helix

• the nucleotides

• the nucleus

DNA is and does what?

What are the steps of gel electrophoresis?

• 1. Make the gel

  2. Set up the gel apparatus

  3. Load the DNA sample into the gel

  4. Hook up the electrical current and run the gel

  5. Stain the gel and analyze the results

• Purines: Adenine and guanine

  Pyrimidines: Cytosine, Thymine, and Uracil

• A solution of DNA molecules is placed in a gel.

• 1. move extracted DNA into PCR tube

  2. add primer 1 to PCR tube

  3. add primer 2

  4. add nucleotide to the PCR tube

  5. add DNA polymers to the PCR tube

  6. Place DNA PCR tube into DNA thermal cycler
