DNA Extraction Lab
DNA Extraction Lab
In this activity, students extract DNA and relate the steps in the procedure to the characteristics of cells and biological molecules. Students learn key concepts about DNA function during the intervals required for the extraction procedure. Student understanding of DNA structure, function and replication is further developed by additional analysis and discussion questions and hands-on modeling of DNA replication.
