Guide Questions: Explain your answer and cite references in APA format. 1. What does mashing do to the fruit? 2. Why did you add detergents? 3. What do you think the ethanol does? Why can't we use room temperature ethanol? 4. To extract DNA from cells, what must you isolate it from in the case of a plant such as strawberry? 5. Look at your container, what do you see in the top portion of the liquid? 6. Is the DNA you extracted is pure? What are the possible impurities? 7. What can we do with the DNA once we have purified it? Discuss different techniques and technologies associated with this. 8. Imagine that there is an E. coli outbreak in your area, and you would like to test the kangkong from your local grocery store. How could you modify this protocol to extract DNA from the kangkong (to identify the species) and check for presence or absence of E. coli.? Keep in mind that (i) E. coli is free-living and not an endosymbiont, and (ii) plant cells are encased in both a cell membrane and…
