5. Two samples of DNA have the same Tm and optical density (A260). Does this prove they are from the same species? Explain. (2pts) 6. A sample of sea urchin DNA has 35 mole percent of G+C, and has a Tm of 86C. A sample of mold DNA has 50 mole percent of G+C and a Tm of 91C. Estimate the percent A+T content of a sample of unknown DNA with a Tm of 83C. (2pts) 7. You found that a diluted sample of a DNA plasmid had a concentration of 2.3ngmL1 after a 1/200 dilution. a. How much plasmid (in gmL1 ) was in the original solution? (lpt) b. What would be the A260 before 1/200 dilution? (lpt)
