How to Conquer a Genetic Disease
Students study the details of DNA restriction analysis and how RFLP's are used to locate genes on a map of DNA.
Curated OER
Genetics and Molecular Biology
Students create DNA models using colored construction papers. In this biology activity, students identify enzyme restriction sites. They model how DNA plasmids replicate when taken up by a bacterial cell.
