Strawberry Dna Extraction Lab Report
The scientific question in this experiment is, how can one extract DNA from a strawberry using limited household items. This was accomplished with the prior knowledge that the DNA is stored in the nucleus of the cell, and that is an extraction buffer would be needed to acquire the DNA. This experiment had no control group, however, if there was a control group it might be a group with no extraction buffer. The independent variable in this experiment is the extraction buffer. The dependent variable in this experiment is the ability to extract DNA. The constants in this experiment include, the shape and size of the coffee filter, the amount of extraction buffer used, and the amount of isopropyl alcohol used, and the amount of strawberry used.
