Science Buddies: "Ask an Expert"

Hi - I don't know the answer have looked everywhere!

When you extract DNA from your cheek cells - there are other macromolecules that come along with it - what are they??????????

Can you tell us a little bit more about your project? What grade are you in, and what are you doing?

Think about what the properties of DNA are that allow it to go through the chemical reaction, and then think about other molecules that are in the cell with those same properties.

Histones, maybe?
