    With respect to DNA fragmentation Statement A: Gel electrophoresis and elution are two important processes. Statement B: After staining with ethidium bromide it has to be exposed to U.V. light.

    A)  Only A is correct.

    B)  Both A and B are correct statements.

    C)  Only B is correct.

    D)  Only A is correct and B is not correct.

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    : The isolated DNA fragments can be separated by gel electrophoresis which separates DNA fragments on the basis of charge and molecular weight. The separated DNA fragments can be visualised only after staining the DNA with ethidium bromide followed by exposure to UV radiation. DNA fragments cannot be seen in visible light without staining.
