4. A scientist cuts a large amount of produce a range of DNA pieces that are relatively similar in size. Scientists can vary the density of the agar gels by varying the amount of agar in the gel. Would she want to make an agarose gel with a higher or lower amount of agarose in order to resolve the DNA bands? A higher amount of agarose in the gel makes it stiffer. Explain.

4. A scientist cuts a large amount of DNA using a restriction enzyme that she believes will
produce a range of DNA pieces that are relatively similar in size. Scientists can vary the
density of the agar gels by varying the amount of agar in the gel. Would she want to make
an agarose gel with a higher or lower amount of agarose in order to resolve the DNA
bands? A higher amount of agarose in the gel makes it stiffer. Explain.
