what was the purpose of mixing cells with sodium chloride and detergent to form the strawberry filtrate? select all the correct statements. a. detergent emulsifies cell and nuclear membranes of cells. b. sodium chloride is used to digest cell proteins. c. sodium ions neutralize the negative charge of dna to facilitate precipitation.

Explanation:

Detergent breaks down cell and nuclear membranes by emulsifying them. Sodium - chloride provides sodium ions that neutralize the negative charge of DNA, making it easier to precipitate. Sodium chloride does not digest cell proteins.

Answer:

A. Detergent emulsifies cell and nuclear membranes of cells.
C. Sodium ions neutralize the negative charge of DNA to facilitate precipitation.
