1. True or False: DNA fragments will "run" toward the electrode during gel electrophoresis because the groups make it a negatively charged molecule.

2. The statement that DNA fragment size is inversely proportional to mobility means: (choose the single best response)

A. That fragments above a certain size are too large to migrate through the agarose gel.

B. That polar biomolecules are best suited for this technique

C. That small fragments will migrate further than large fragments over a given time because they are able to weave through the agarose more easily.

D. None of the above are true.

3. True or False: The buffer added to the gel box during electrophoresis contains TBE to aid in conduction of electrical current.
