instances of how our knowledge of DNA has changed life in our day. Give one positive and one negative application of that knowledge and defend your answer. According to Kenneth Saladin‚ deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) is “a long threadlike molecule with a uniform diameter of 2mm‚ although its length varies greatly from the smallest to the largest chromosomes.” What does this mean? Basically‚ it is a long string that contains a person’s genetic information. DNA has been studied overtime and it

Oxygenated • R state (relaxed) • When O2 is present‚ it binds to the iron attached to each heme and tugs on it which in turn flattens the heme to a planar shape • The color of oxygenated blood is red (macroscopic) • Carried from the heart throughout the body by the systemic arteries Deoxygenated

Djina Jan-18-15 Lab #6 - DNA Extraction lab Introduction: DNA is a double stranded macromolecule composed of nucleotide bases pairing Adenine with Thymine and Cytosine with Guanine. S ince DNA is the blueprint for life‚ every living thing contains DNA. The extraction of DNA from cells and its purification are of primary importance to the field of biotechnology and forensics. Extraction and purification of DNA are the first steps in the analysis and manipulation of DNA that allow scientists to detect

that diatomic molecules make up majority of the Earth’s atmosphere? The prefix “di” means ‘’two’’ in Greek‚ so these diatomic molecules are made up of two atoms. In this lesson‚ we will discuss diatomic molecules and go over some examples. !!!What is a Diatomic Molecule? Diatomic molecules are all around us. The Earth’s atmosphere is mainly composed of about 78% oxygen and 21% nitrogen. The oxygen and nitrogen present in the atmosphere are both in the form of ‘’diatomic molecules’’‚ as shown below:

The Importance of DNA Evidence What is DNA? Is it these winding strands that look like ladders or is it what gives a person blonde hair and blue eyes? Actually‚ DNA is both of these things. DNA is a person’s genetic makeup–their hereditary blueprint passed on by their parents. It is a part of almost every cell in the human body. In each cell‚ a person’s DNA is the same; it stays the same throughout their lifetime. DNA is found in skin tissue‚ sweat‚ bone‚ the root and shaft of hair‚ earwax‚ mucus
