In gel electrophoresis, fragments are separated by size and electrical charge by applying to them

Gel matrix

Explanation:

Gel electrophoresis is a technique in molecular biology used to separate fragments of biomolecules such as DNA, RNA, protein by applying electric current through a GEL medium. The basis of separation of this fragments is their sizes and electrical charge.

In the gel electrophoresis procedure, a GEL medium made of Agarose is used. The DNA fragments, which are then negatively charged begins to move towards the positive end of the gel when electric current is supplied. The smaller fragments move/migrate faster than the larger ones towards the positive end. Therefore, In gel electrophoresis, fragments are separated by size and electrical charge by applying GEL to them.

emerald ash borer

the emerald ash borer is a green buprestid or jewel beetle native to north-eastern asia that feeds on ash species. females lay eggs in bark crevices on ash trees, and larvae feed underneath the bark of ash trees to emerge as adults in one to two years. hope this !

step 1: nitrogen fixation- conversion of atmospheric no₂ into forms useful to plants by lightning, bacteria, and cyanobacteria.

step 2: nitrification-process of converting ammonia to nitrite or nitrate.

step 3: assimilation-plant roots absorb new form of nitrogen.

step 4: ammonification-conversion of organic nitrogen to ammonia by bacteria involved in decomposition.

step 5: denitrification-bacteria turns the decomposed matter back into n₂o, which is released into atmosphere; repeat cycle.
