6.8 Biotechnology continued

 

 

Today's Learning Objective(s):

§   Explain the use of genetic engineering techniques in analyzing or manipulating DNA.

#	Tasks:
1	Video: PCR & Gel Electrophoresis There are two inventions that allow scientists to “fingerprint” DNA.   - PCR - electrophoresis
2	Read background - Lab: Restriction Enzymes   Document
3	Conduct the Lab Let’s load the gels.
4	Lab: Restriction Enzymes - Analysis After collecting the data from the gels:   Do we know the culprit?   Claim – Which DNA is the match? Evidence – What about the gel electrophoresis supports your claim. Reasoning – Explain why this evidence is so strong using what you know about PCR and gel electrophoresis.
