Description
In this hands-on Strawberry DNA Extraction Lab, students explore how DNA is stored inside cells and learn how scientists isolate DNA for study. Using simple household materials, students extract visible strands of DNA from strawberries, observe its physical characteristics, and connect each step of the procedure to its role in the extraction process while reinforcing key concepts about DNA’s importance in living organisms.
