Describe what your own DNA looked like during isolation ?

Expert Solution

With the exception of red blood cells, every cell in the body has DNA and every cell in a person's body has the same DNA. Most DNA is located in the cell nucleus, but a small amount of DNA can also be found in the mitochondria. and to see the individual strands of DNA, you would need a electron microscope.

Deoxyribonucleic acid extracted from your own cells has been variously described as looking like strands of mucus; limp, thin, white noodles; or a network of delicate, limp fibers; a white, cloudy or fine stringy substance. DNA is not visible as a single strand to the naked eye, but when thousands of threads of DNA are present, you will be able to see the large groups of threads of DNA. Under a microscope, the familiar double-helix molecule of DNA can be seen.
