Lab 3 – DNA extraction and visualization Journal -Madhu Thalari.
1.Describe the laboratory exercise as you interpreted it.? Ans: This lab has given me methods to extrct DNA from both plant cells and animal cells. The main steps that are followed in both methods made me understand the reasons behind them. In order to extract DNA we need break the barriers(cell wall and cellmembrane), remove water, protiens and other unwanted material, make sure that the chemical we used should not damage DNA that we need and add flouroscent material to visualize the DNA. Now I think I can extract …show more content…

It is vey important crime investigation feild where the criminal can traced out. It also plays a major role in the law of justice where people lie about their relation that they had with other people(father and son or mother and son).
5.Below are the images of the gels after electrophoresis. Indicate which lane is loaded with the samples from your group?
Ans: Our group sample are in 8th and 9th lanes from left to right starting from ladder(not counting ladder). The 8th lane is loaded with hair follicle DNA sample and 9th lane is loaded with cauliflower DNA sample.

6.Describe the results, explain whether you obtained what you expect–why or why not?
Ans: The 8th lane shows up nothing which means hair fllicle DNA sample doesn't have DNA in it. The 9th lane showed up bright light colour which means Cauliflower DNA sample has DNA in it, but both 8th and 9th lanes are expected to show bright

The methods of this experiment are really simple. When we started the experiment we all washed our hands and wore gloves. Each group member did their part to conduct and successful experiment, one group member plugs the Bunsen burner to the gas pipe and turned on the gas, then used flint spark lighter to set the flame on the Bunsen burner. While the second group member is setting the dissecting microscope and making sure the lenses are clean. This member is getting all three Petri dishes ready to examine (first Petri dish contains E. coli, the second dish have the mixture of C. elegans, the third dish is where we are transferring female C. elegans to mate up).

Introduction A mutation is a heritable change that is passed from the mother cell to progeny cells. Mutations may lead to good, bad or neutral phenotypic changes in the organism. They may occur spontaneously as in random DNA replicative errors or may be induced by mutagenic chemicals or radiation. Besides mutations, another way that bacteria achieve gene diversity is through the three known mechanisms for intercellular gene transfer.

Discussion PV92 Gel Electrophoresis Results: Through the usage of gel electrophoresis the correct allele for each sample was able to be determined. Lanes one through three in the gel,were the positive control lanes they contained the PCR cocktail and a known high-quality template for the PCR reaction. First lane contained the sample with the +/+ allele, which had two copies of the ALU repeat allele. The first lane had a band at about 941 base pairs.

In this case they left other objects pthat could have been tested untested. Their could have been DNA, like hair or saliva, left on those objectives. The detectives didn’t know if the objects were 100% not going to have any DNA on it. There was no way for them to find, or understand this, unless they tested these objects. Nevertheless, this isn’t the only time that they had pushed away any possible evidence for DNA testing.

Although, in our lab report, suspect ones DNA matched the crime scene when cut with enzyme one, this can be explained by how closely related the two suspects are. Therefore two enzymes were used to cut the DNA; the suspect has to match both. Moreover, the limitation to DNA fingerprinting is, if a person were to have an identical twin. This is because identical twins have the same DNA because they come from the same egg. If a suspect’s DNA matched that of the one being tested, and they had an identical twin, a farther investigation would need to be done.

As previously mentioned, the hairs found were tested using a comparison microscope and the hairs also were tested with mitochondrial DNA. We know as investigators that the significance of mitochondrial DNA is major because it is unique to the mother, unlike nuclear DNA which requires both parents. Mitochondrial DNA is advantageous in analyzing items such as hair that does not have the hair root attached. As stated for the fibers, tests like SEM and electronic microscopy were evaluated to determine that the fibers were in fact comparable to the fibers found around the

The STR length contrast is what is used to differentiate individuals. Gel electrophoresis then uses the STRs to create a DNA profile. The gel electrophoresis separates the STRs depending on their length and the pattern is then shown in fluorescent gel creating the profile. These profiles are then used by scientist to compare patterns between evidence and or suspects to determine a match or not a match.

Do you want to learn about the big, hairy, nine foot tall man eating beast in the woods also known as Bigfoot? If your answer is yes, boy do I have a paper for you. Bigfoot sightings and the stories that go along with them, are a hoax. Articles exist that say how easily people can make Bigfoot sightings.

Today, arguments for and against the use of DNA have surfaced. DNA profiling is the technology that uses the individual’s DNA characteristics. Each human has his own DNA, comprising 99.9% of the same DNA but scientists have found the remnant 0.1% difference. One of its benefits is that scientists are using this crucial distinction to find criminals from bodily fluid samples, hair, skin and other parts of the body. (sciencemuseum, 2016) DNA also has another advantageous application; it is used to find biological family relationships.

D Assessment DNA technology Forensic testing 24.11.2014 Marius Martinsen 10D Introduction: I have chosen to investigate Forensic testing, it is also known as DNA profiling or genetic fingerprinting. During this essay I will discuss what the disadvantages and what the advantages of forensic testing are. I will also talk about how forensic testing is carried out. Forensic testing is used to identify an individual by using the DNA sequences of that person.

This is a sheet of special blotting paper. The DNA fragments keep the same pattern of separation that they had on the gel. The blot is incubated with multiple copies of a probe. The probe forms base pairs with the complementary the DNA sequence and binds to form a double stranded DNA molecule. This step is called hybridisation.

DNA in forensic science The majority of cells making up the human body are diploid cells carrying identical DNA, with the exception of haploid gametes and red blood cells. Several types of biological evidence such as blood and hair are commonly used in forensic science, which is the scientific study of evidence for crime scene investigations and other legal matters. Forensic science is used for the purpose of DNA analysis, this is the analysis of DNA samples to determine if it came from a particular individual. DNA analysis is done by obtaining DNA samples from an individual; next, a large sample of DNA is produced from amplified selected sequences from the DNA collected.
