electrophoresis Gel electrophoresis is a method for separation and analysis of macromolecules (DNA, RNA and proteins) and their fragments, based on their size and charge. It is used in clinical chemistry to separate proteins by charge and/or size (IEF agarose, essentially size independent) and in biochemistry and molecular biology to separate a mixed population of DNA and RNA fragments by length, to estimate the size of DNA and RNA fragments or to separate proteins by charge.[1] Nucleic acid molecules are separated

use of new technology like surveillance systems, DNA collection citizen are left feeling like we are targets almost as if privacy is a thing in the past and the ending results leaves us feeling exposed. As far as mandating DNA collection programs are concerned the public has deemed it both and ethical and civil liberty violation. Many people are opposed to the idea of allowing law enforcement to obtain DNA from anyone who is arrested because there DNA stays in the system weather the individual is

Before we begin to discuss the issues related to genetic diversity, we have to know exactly what genetic diversity is all about. It is a " term used to describe genetic differences among members of a population", according to Concepts in Biology 12th Edition written by Eldon Enger. There are several topics we can discuss when speaking about genetic diversity such as mutation, sexual reproduction, migration and population size. Let's start with Mutation. Mutation brought recent information
