Question
Answer
Electrophoresis allows for what on the basis of what?   show
🗑
show anion  
🗑
an anion will migrate toward what? also what is it called   show
🗑
show cation  
🗑
a cation will migrate toward what? and what is this called?   show
🗑
the migration and separation of molecules are carried out using a what? also what are some examples of these?   show
🗑
show seiving effect, in which small molecules navigate the matrix more quickly than larger ones  
🗑
show proteins and nucleic acids  
🗑
for now, we will be separating DNA fragments using ______ as the matrix   show
🗑
show size, shape, % agarose, voltage  
🗑
show smaller fragments of DNA will travel further than the larger ones  
🗑
show plasmids; isolated plasmids  
🗑
show larger; not resolved; smaller; not retarded  
🗑
what are two significant equations regarding voltage?   show
🗑
show the higher the voltage, the greater the power, which creates lots of HEAT  
🗑
show smiling bands (heat is more rapidly dispersed at EDGES OF GEL)  
🗑
what is the measurement of dispersion?   show
🗑
During electrophoresis water is_________, generating ________at the anode and ______ ______ at the cathode. This results in regions of high and low pH. Therefore a _______ is needed.   show
🗑
the two most popular buffers for agarose gel electrophoresis are _____ and _______.   show
🗑
show glycerol and the dye bromophenol blue~200-400 bp)  
🗑
show intercalates; nucleic acids; absorption spectrum; fluoresce  
🗑
show band intensity  
🗑
show high molecular weight DNA  
🗑
show a smear  
🗑
the molecules separate by ______ RELATIVE TO THE CONDITIONS in which the electrophoresis was conducted   show
🗑
A ____ _________ (a sample of DNA fragments of known sizes and mass) is used as a ________ to estimate the size of unknown DNA molecules   show
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
