Study of principle of centrifugation
By following the principle of centrifugation, one can separate out the particles of one kind from a mixture of particles as molecules with lower molecular weight settle down and molecules with higher molecular weight float.
What happens during centrifugation?
Centrifugation is a technique used for the separation of particles from a solution according to their size, shape, density, viscosity of the medium and rotor speed. The particles are suspended in a liquid medium and placed in a centrifuge tube. The tube is then placed in a rotor and spun at a define speed.
Which of the following components settles at the bottom after centrifugation?
Explanation: The component settling at the bottom is RNA.
