Question
There are 48,502 bases pairs in length for lambda DNA. If you cut a sample of lambda DNA using a restriction enzyme that only cuts at one location and that location is base pair #8000: A. How many fragments of lambda DNA would result from this single cut. B.how many base pairs is each of these fragments? C. If you were to cut lambs DNA using a restriction enzyme that had four restriction sites, how many fragments of lambda DNA would results?There are 48,502 bases pairs in length for lambda DNA.

Explanation / Answer
A)
The Lambda DNA contains 48,502 base pairs when cut with a restriction enzyme at 8000 base pair, the lambda DNA results in 2 fragments.
B)
The two fragments resulted from a single cut with restriction enzyme at 8000 base pairs results in 40,502 and 8000 base pairs.
C)
If the lambda DNA is being cut at four restriction sites the DNA results in 4 fragments of varying lengths depending on the number of basepairs at where they are being cut by the restriction enzyme.
