You have 2 solutions of DNA. Solution 1 contains single strandedviral DNA while Solution 2 has double stranded form of the sameviral DNA. Both solutions contain 1 mg/ml of DNA. You then exposeeach of these solutions to UV light at 260 nm. Which of thefollowing results would you expect to see after UV lightexposure?
a.
Nothing will occur. DNA can only absorb UV light if it isinterchelated with ethidium bromide.
b.
Solution 1 will absorb less light than Solution 2
c.
Both solutions will absorb the same amount of light since theirconcentrations are the same.
d.
Neither solution will absorb any UV light but the DNA in bothsolutions will be broken by the action of the UV light.
e.
Solution 1 will absorb more light than solution2.
