IB SL Biology Lab Molecular Biology: Transformation and Electrophoresis Christina Qi 2/16/07 Aim: How can a plasmid be engineered to include a foreign piece of DNA and how does gel electrophoresis separate DNA molecules present in a mixture? Hypothesis: If the pGLO plasmid is inserted into competent Escherichia coli cells‚ then the transformed bacteria will be resistant to ampicillin and will glow green under UV light. If samples of DNA are cut using certain restriction

such as the red maple were located in stations four and five. It was noticed that the area in which bunchberry plants grew were shady areas because the large trees were blocking the sun light from reaching them. Plants need sunlight to conduct photosynthesis in order for growth to take place; however‚ too much exposure to the heat the sun brings may cause a plant to become too dry through the process of evaporation which supports the earlier prediction that a bunchberry requires a moist‚ cool environment

Conclusion I predicted that if the decolorization of DPIP is caused by photosynthesis and not cell respiration and spinach extract containing chloroplasts and mitochondria is incubated with DPIP‚ then the rate of DPIP decolorization should be higher if in bright light verses dark light because DPIP is reduced by photosynthesis and not by the mitochondria or any other cellular function. If DPIP was only decolorized by chloroplasts‚ then the percent transmittance of chloroplast suspensions would be
