Please help me answer these questions:

1) What other methods can be used to verify that transformation occurred? Explain.

2)In your lab, you ran your DNA samples on a 0.8% agarose gel. Would you get the same results if you ran your samples on a higher percentage agarose gel? Why or why not?

3) If you have a restriction enzyme that cuts a piece of DNA at two recognition sites, how many DNA fragments would you see on a gel?

Thank you=]

Dna fingerprinting….?

Two uses of DNA fingerprinting include...

a)aiding in the identification of the genes responsible for genetic disorders & the production of vaccines

b)aiding in the identification of criminals from DNA samples left at a crime scene & the identification of related individuals

c)aiding in the identification of the genes responsible for genetic disorders & the determination of the number of human genes

d)aiding in the identification of related individuals & the treatment of genetic disorders

I have this lab in which I have to Identify DNA by Restriction Enzyme Pattern.Why more than one Enzyme is used for DNA fingerprinting? Could DNA samples have been distinguished from one another if only one Enzyme is used? How to analyze gel Band patterns if two enzymes are used?

It's not unusual for unknown suspects to leave behind DNA evidence at crime scenes. Often it takes years for the DNA to be linked to a particular person, and it's often because the suspect in question has had encounters with the authorities in other cases and has submitted DNA samples. Will DNA testing eventually enable us to tell what the carrier of the DNA looks like, even if we can't put a name with the DNA?

The father of my child and I were both required to appear for dna testing at the Child Support building to establish paternity for our child.I appeared with the baby,however he did not appear.
What happens from here?
the lab staff did collect the dna samples from the baby and I
