A person cannot see a single cotton thread 100 feet away, but if you wound thousands of
threads together into a rope, it would be visible much further away. How is this similar to
our DNA extraction?

Explanation:

Yes this statement is analogous, single thread from far distance is not visible to naked eye because of its very thin narrow size in the same way DNA is also not seen because DNA size is smaller.

Final answer: When tied thousands of DNA stands together into one strand, it would be about as large as cotton thread. When clump the extracted DNA from many cells which is similar to winding thousands of cotton threads together to make a rope. This make the DNA become easier to see from further distances.

Given that: We are given a person cannot see a single cotton thread 100 feet away, but if you wound thousands of threads together into a rope, it would be visible much further away.

To find: We have to find how given statement is similar to our DNA extraction.

Explanation:

  • DNA means deoxyribonucleic acid, which is responsible for transformation of heredity effect from one generation to another.
  • DNA extraction is a type of method used to purify DNA.
  • To purify DNA use physical or chemical method, by that way sample separating DNA from cellular components such as cell membranes, proteins..etc.
  • When molecules are insoluble or unable to be dissolved, it makes DNA strand clump together and become visible to the naked eye.
  • When we clump the DNA extraction together, it is easier to visible to the naked eye.
  • DNA strand in one cell is much smaller than cotton thread which is difficult to see, when tied thousands of DNA stands together into one strand, it would be about as large as cotton thread.
  • When clump the extracted DNA from many cells which is similar to winding thousands of cotton threads together to make a rope. This make the DNA become easier to see from further distances.
