3. What does the salt do? 4. What was the purpose of cooling the mixture?
5. What does the cold ethanol do?
6. Why can't we use room temperature ethanol?
7. Why are strawberries classified as octoploids?

3.You might think this should mean you need to cut out salt completely, but salt is actually an important nutrient for the human body. Your body uses salt to balance fluids in the blood and maintain healthy blood pressure, and it is also essential for nerve and muscle function.

4.Cooling the mixture is to prevent the DNA from being degraded by the heating.

5.The ethanol pulls water from the DNA molecule so that it then collapses in on itself and precipitates. The DNA will become visible as white mucous strands that can be spooled with the wooden applicator stick.

6.The colder the ethanol is the greater the amount of DNA that is precipitated. (You could try having some of the students use room temperature ethanol and see if the amount of DNA they can spool is the same or less than that for the groups using the ice-cold ethanol.

7.The reason is every strawberry seed contains different genetic material, the product of a myriad of potential gene combinations. Because the genetics of strawberries are so diverse (humans are diploid, strawberries are octoploid)

Explanation:

the overall balanced equation

6co2 + 6h2o > c6h12o6 + 6o2

sunlight energy

where: co2 = carbon dioxide

h2o = water

light energy is required

c6h12o6 = glucose

o2 = oxygen

answer: 20 percent

the fish culture has become a developing commercial practice in developing countries which is already prominent in developed countries of the world. the major fish protein demand is being supplemented in developing countries is   fishing to meet the needs of the growing population. therefore, in some developing nations, the percentage of animal protein from fish in the diet can be as high as 20 percent.
