If your lambda DNA will have eight (8) fragments after digestion and your agarose gel result only had six (6) fragments, what happened to the other two (2) fragments?
The fragments are too small, and thus they ran off.

If your p-value were 0.85 and the standard error bars did not overlap for two treatments, are those two treatments significantly different from each other? Why?
No, because p-value was not significant.
