  6. Answer The process of rupturing a cell to release its contents.

  7. Question What is lysis?

  8. Answer A suspension that traps impurities from fish tissue and prevents contamination of DNA.

  9. Question What is matrix?

  10. Answer The liquid portion above the pellet formed after centrifugation.

  11. Question What is the supernatant?

  12. Answer Of the four PCR reactions in your table setup today, this is the sample that doesn’t have any DNA in it.

  13. Question What is the negative control?

  14. DAILY How much do you wish to wager? DOUBLE

  15. Daily DoubleAnswer An enzyme used in PCR that is able to function at very high temperatures.

  16. Daily DoubleQuestion What is Taq polymerase?

  17. Answer These target the portion of DNA to be amplified.

  18. Question What are primers?

  19. Answer A step in PCR in which the temperature is lowered to 50–65ºC, allowing the primers to bind to the DNA.

  20. Question What is annealing?

  21. Answer The complementary strand of the ACTGGTTA template strand that is being copied during extension.

  22. Question What is TGACCAAT?

  23. Answer The name of the gene that is being amplified by PCR in the Fish Barcoding Kit.

  24. Question What is COI?

  25. Answer This acts as a sieve to separate DNA based on its size when an electrical field is applied.

  26. Question What is an agarose gel?

  27. Answer The size of the amplified portion of the COI gene.

  28. Question What is 650 bp?

  29. Answer It weighs down the DNA sample so that it stays in the well after loading.

  30. Question What is loading dye?

  31. Answer It’s used to determine the size of the DNA (in base pairs) in an agarose gel.

  32. Question What is a DNA ladder or molecular weight ruler?

  33. Answer Where negatively charged DNA migrates to during gel electrophoresis.
