Hello hannahjane273,

I’m assuming that you are working on the project described here:

https://www.sciencebuddies.org/science- ... ml#summary

After reviewing the project procedure I don’t think there are any data to use in making a graph. You might consider photographing the steps in making the strawberry extract and the final DNA sample. Also you might make a summary of your observations during the experiment to use as a data table.

I hope this helps. Please post again if you have more questions.
