Electrophoresis
Molecules are organized by this during electrophoresis
What is size/length?
Small circle of DNA in prokaryote separate from chromosome
What is a plasmid?
When an enzyme is able to break up DNA
What is digestion?
A reaction that can be used to copy an individual's DNA billions of times
What is the Polymer Chain Reaction?
Newton's favorite color
What is green?
The gel used in electrophoresis
What is agarose gel?
Other method of transferring DNA instead of from parent to offspring
What is horizontal gene transfer?
Either side of the gene that has been isolated, that have open bases ready to pair
What are sticky ends?
Short sequences of DNA that are repeated numerous times
What are Short Tandem Repeats?
Model of chevy car that Newton drives
What is Tahoe?
The height of the liquid above the gel
What is just a little over the gel?
The part of a prokaryote used in conjugation
What is a pilus?
A/GGCA
CC/GAG
CCGA/C
are all examples of this type of molecule
What is a restriction enzyme?
Variations in DNA sequence between individuals
What is polymorphism?
Newton's favorite thing to do
What is hiking in the woods?
The template used in electrophoresis
What is a DNA Ladder?
When a virus injects foreign DNA into a bacterial cell
What is transduction?
Either side of the gene that has been isolated, that do not have open bases ready to pair
What are blunt ends?
Method used to match DNA left at a crime scene with suspects
What is Gel Electrophoresis?
Newton's grandkids ages (3)
What is 4, 7, and 11?
The unit used in measuring DNA size during electrophoresis
What are base pairs?
When a gene or segment of DNA relocates from one area to the other
The enzyme used to splice a new gene to an organism's DNA
PCR is an example of how you could accomplish this
What is DNA Amplification?
Newton's least favorite student
Who is Colin?
