Strawberries are the perfect choice for a DNA extraction activity due to the fact they provide more DNA than other fruits, and they are octoploid which means they contain eight pairs of chromosomes in their nucleus. Therefore, DNA of strawberries can be easily extracted and analyzed.
During DNA extraction, soaps help to dissolve cell membrane which is lipid bilayer. Removal of lipids and proteins that surround cell and nucleus is the essential part of the protocol.
Therefore, the purpose of using soap in the DNA extraction activity using frozen strawberries is to dissolve cell membranes.
The purpose of using soap in the DNA extraction activity using frozen strawberries is to
