What causes the change in the ability of DNA to absorb UV light when it is denatured?
options:
|
In denatured DNA, DNA double helix is disrupted, which causes the exposure of the deoxyribose and thus increases their absorbance of UV light |
|
In denatured DNA, DNA double helix is disrupted, which causes the exposure of the phosphate groups and thus increases their absorbance of UV light. |
|
In denatured DNA, DNA double helix is disrupted, which causes the exposure of the bases and thus increases their absorbance of UV light. |

- What is the role of alcohol in extracting DNA? DNA is a polar molecule with an overall negative charge, and as such is not soluble in alcohol, and therefore precipitates. DNA is a polar molecule with an overall positive charge, and as such is not soluble in alcohol, and therefore precipitates. DNA is a non polar molecule with an overall negative change, and as such is soluble in alcohol, and therefore precipitates. DNA is a polar molecule with an overall positive change, and as such is soluble in alcohol, and therefore precipitates.Why is it important that the alcohol used in the DNA extraction is kept cold? The solubility of any compound is reduced at lower temperatures. The colder the temperature of the alcohol, the greater the yield of DNA due to increased precipitation of DNA at the interface between the aqueous and alcohol layers. The solubility of any compound is increased at lower temperatures. The colder the temperature of the alcohol, the greater the yield of DNA due to increased solubility of DNA at the interface between the aqueous and alcohol layers. The solubility of any compound is reduced at lower temperatures. The colder the temperature of the alcohol, the greater the yield of DNA due to increased precipitation of DNA in the aqueous layer. The solubility of any compound is increased at lower temperatures. The colder the temperature of the alcohol, the greater the yield of DNA due to increased solubility of DNA in the aqueous layer.Explain why the absorption of UV light by double-stranded DNA increases (the hyperchromic effect) when the DNA is denatured.

A laser is used to flurorescently label the nucleotides present with in the DNA , the DNA is run on a gel and then the DNA is droken into fragments c. Nucleotides are scanned with a laser and incrprorated into the DNA that has been seperated on a gel and then DNA is amplified with PCR. d. fragments of DNA are produced in a reaction that lables them with any of four different fluroscent dyes and the fragmented then are run on a gel and scanned with laser e. DNA is broken down into its constituents nucleotides and the nucleotides are then run on a gel and purified with a laserOnce the strands have been replicated, the enzyme DNA polymerase I “cleans up” by removing the primers.
