Why is DNA Important? DNA is important because it's the blueprint of biological life from its inception to its growth and till death. I predict that the strawberries will get sticky to the cup as ac-hole is in it.

I was surprised about how much DNA was extracted because it  also possibly find cures for them by manipulating or experimenting with this DNA.

2. Yes I think this process will work on other compounds because the structure of other DNA.

3. DNA can be extracted from many types of cells.To get the DNA from a cell, scientists typically rely on one of many DNA extraction kits available from biotechnology companies. During a DNA extraction, a detergent will cause the cell to pop open, or lyse, so that the DNA is released into solution. The DNA is contained inside the nucleus of the cell. To release it, we need to break down the plant matter, then break open the cell and finally break in to the nucleus of the cell.
