Gel electrophoresis is a technique used to separate mixtures like DNA and proteins.

Answer 3

yes but then were do the small molecules of dna moves to do the stay in the bottom ?

Answer 4

. In gel electrophoresis, molecules with big charges are going to move faster. If a molecule charge is very small, the attraction is going to be small. This means the molecule is going to move slowly in the gel. If the molecule does not have a charge, it will not move.
