Question
predict what you think the dna will look like when it has been extracted from the cell.
DNA extraction from cells typically results in a substance that can be observed with the naked eye. In many extraction procedures, especially those using common household items or basic laboratory setups, the DNA appears as a white, stringy, and somewhat slimy substance. This is because DNA molecules are long and can aggregate together when precipitated out of the cell lysate (the solution containing broken - open cells).
