Dear friend
Repetitive DNA :It is the non-coding DNA with multiple copies of identical sequences, which may lie in , tandem or interspersed These can be few base pairs to hundreds or thousands of base pairs long.
In CsCl density gradient analysis, They appear as light bands.
Satellite DNA :
Refers to non-coding tandem repeating sequences.
These are generally short sequence repeats (upto 60 base pair long).
These appear as small dark bands.

Repetitive DNA is composed of tandem, repeated sequences of from two to several thousand base pairs and is estimated to constitute about 30% of the genome. Many of these sequences are localized in centromeres and telomeres, but they are also dispersed throughout the genome.
