Question

Question 5 options:

Agarose

Flask

Gel mold

Gel comb

Buffer

Microwave

Answer 1

To make the gel mold setup for the lab, you will need the following supplies:

1. Agarose - This is the primary material used to make the gel.
2. Gel mold - This is needed to shape the gel into the desired format.
3. Gel comb - This is used to create wells in the gel for loading samples.
4. Buffer - This is necessary for preparing the agarose gel and for running the gel electrophoresis.
5. Microwave - This is typically used to dissolve the agarose in buffer.

The Flask is generally not essential for the gel mold setup itself (unless you're using it to prepare the agarose solution).

So, the correct selections are:

• Agarose
• Gel mold
• Gel comb
• Buffer
• Microwave
