The separation of a mixture of proteins by placing them on a gel-coated plate under the influence of an electric potential is:

Question

Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R). Assertion (A): When using intercalating dye, all the molecules must be able to clearly separate in terms of size.
Reason (R): Using intercalating dye permits analysis of DNA fragments in single colour only.
In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:

Answer 1

Electrophoresis separates molecules (e.g., proteins, nucleic acids) by charge and size using an electric field. It is crucial for analyzing complex mixtures in molecular biology and forensic science.
